The story of the world’s greatest civilization—spanning 4,000 years of history—full of epic stories, spectacular places, and an evolving society wealthy in inventors, heroes, villains, and pioneers.  

The story of the world’s greatest civilization spans 4,000 years of history that have shaped the world. It is filled with spectacular cities and epic stories—an evolving society wealthy in inventors, heroes, heroines, villains, artisans, and pioneers. Professor Joann Fletcher pulls together your complete story of Egypt—charting the upward push and fall of the ancient Egyptians at the same time as putting their whole world into a context to which we will all relate.

Fletcher uncovers some fascinating revelations: new evidence shows that women became pharaohs on no less than ten occasions; and that the ancient Egyptians built the first Suez Canal after which circumnavigated Africa. From Ramses II’s penchant for dying his grey hair to how we all know that Montuhotep’s chief wife bit her nails, Dr. Joann Fletcher brings alive the history and people of ancient Egypt as no one else can.
