Hatshepsut: Daughter of Amun
By Caldecott, Moyra

Summary

The dramatic and passionate story of Hatshepsut, Queen of Egypt during the Eighteenth dynasty. Ancient Egypt 3500 years ago--a land ruled by the all-powerful female king, Hatshepsut. Ambitious, ruthless and worldly: a woman who established Amun as the chief god of Egypt, bestowing his Priesthood with unprecedented riches and power. This is a story of vision and obsession, of mighty projects and heartbreaking failures--the story of a woman possessed by the desire for power and the need to love.
