More about the book
The biography explores the remarkable life of Hatshepsut, Ancient Egypt's longest-reigning female pharaoh, detailing her unexpected ascent to power. Initially expected to produce male heirs, her inability to do so led her to seize the throne as a cross-dressing king. At a young age, she skillfully outmaneuvered the mother of the infant king Thutmose III, ultimately claiming her place as pharaoh. The narrative highlights her audacity and strategic brilliance in a male-dominated society.
