According to George Bernard Shaw, Joan of Arc was in fact one of the first Protestant martyrs. She was one of the first apostles of nationalism, and the first French practitioner of Napoleonic realism in warfare.

Shaw's exploration of the story of this ingenuous and eponymous heroine is set in six scenes and an epilogue, which takes place in 1456, when the church cleared Joan of the charge of heresy and condemned her accusers of corruption.

Three Men in a Boat was intended to be a serious travel guide.

The dog, Montmorency, however, was entirely fictional, but, as Jerome remarked, 'had much of me in it'.
