Description

This wonderfully illustrated work retraces the extraordinary destiny of Hatshepsut, the first lady to bear the title of Pharaoh. The daughter of Thutmose I, she declared herself to have been born of the union between the god Amun and Ahmose, his mother. For over twenty years, she ordered elaborate construction throughout the Valley of the Kings, organised a remarkable expedition to the Land of Frankincense and governed Egypt with courage, intelligence and determination. Christiane Desroches Noblecourt here provides a thrilling study and, right down to the everyday details, reveals the life of this exceptional woman who remained unknown for all too long.
