This book presents a concise account of the lives and times of some
of the more significant occupants of the Egyptian throne, from the
unification of the country around 3000 BC down to the extinction of
native rule just under three millennia later. Some, such as
Thutmose III, had a major impact on their time, and were remembered
by their own people until the very civilization collapsed. Others,
such as Tutankhamun, were soon forgotten by the Egyptians
themselves, only to burst into popular culture thousands of years
after their deaths, as a result of the labors of modern
archaeologists. Still more remain unknown outside the small circle
of professional archaeologists, but led lives that call out for
wider dissemination. This book sets out to provide a mix of all
three categories, in an attempt to present a balanced view of
Egyptian kings and their range of achievements.First published in
1995, Monarchs of the Nile has now been extensively revised and
rewritten to take into account two further decades of research and
excavation.
