The narrative centers on Thutmose III and Hatshepsut, significant figures in ancient Egypt, highlighting their military achievements and monumental contributions. Thutmose, likened to Napoleon, expanded Egypt's territories, while Hatshepsut, a rare female pharaoh, is noted for her trading expeditions and co-reign with Thutmose. The book delves into their joint legacy, the destruction of Hatshepsut's images by Thutmose, and their enduring influence on future rulers. Richly illustrated, it also recounts their rediscovery in the 19th century, restoring their historical significance.
