Summary:
"Explores the lives of six remarkable female pharaohs, from Hatshepsut to Cleopatra--women who ruled with real power. What was so special about ancient
Egypt
that provided women this kind of access to the highest political office? What was it about these women that allowed them to transcend patriarchal obstacles? What did
Egypt
gain from its liberal reliance on female leadership, and could today's world learn from its example?"-- From publisher.
