Did you know that it was during the New Kingdom period that ancient Egyptian kings started calling themselves “pharaohs?”

Previously, they were simply referred to as kings. But the fact that we call all of them pharaohs today speaks about how important and influential the New Kingdom was.

It is also the most researched period of ancient Egyptian history because it has an abundance of surviving evidence.

This is also the time when some of the best-known pharaohs ruled, such as Ahmose, Hatshepsut, Thutmose, Nefertiti, and Ramses II. In this book, you will find everything you need to know about these kings and queens of old.

Learn who united Egypt and started the Eighteenth Dynasty. Flip the pages and find out:

Who were the Hyksos, and why did Ahmose I expel them from Egypt?
How powerful were the women of the Eighteenth Dynasty?
Why was Amenhotep I worshiped as a god?
How did a woman named Hatshepsut become a pharaoh?
Why did Egypt strive to conquer the Levant?
Why did Akhenaten and Nefertiti abandon the old religion and start monotheism in ancient Egypt?
Why did “Boy King” Tutankhamun bring back the old gods?
Why were so many kings named Ramses?
Why is Ramses II one of the greatest pharaohs who ever reigned?
How did the priests of Amun usurp the throne?
Why did the New Kingdom come to an end?

just the facts, ma'am

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 26, 2022

Verified Purchase

This is the modern-day Cliff's Notes. It is paperback (slick cover), fairly large type, 69 pages. "Just the facts, ma'am. Just the facts." No footnotes anywhere. The bibliography is not called that. There is a "References" list of 9 titles on page 72. The titles are legitimate enough as sources-- including Breasted (1906) and Rawlinson -- for whom they give "n.d." but would be 19th century. These sources are likely all longer than 69 pages. Pages 73 and 74 are blank as are the following four pages --- room for notes. A few black-and-white images of ancient artwork interspersed throughout the book. Seems to be a relatively good summation of the subject.

Valuable details

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 29, 2021

The details of this period of the history of Egypt is revealing of that period of history. The passage of the history and the details is very interesting to anyone who follows the tracting of facts and attempts to keep them straight. One begins to want to know more and be able to evaluate the accuracy. The value of a method to communicate to the next period that can do the same is significant and speaks to the value of intelligent and hard working members to each population.
Reading this makes me wanting to find the next one. The Americas come to mind, how valuable would a history of native Americans be to those of us who are interested in that history!

I like to read more about Egypt. I think is a fascinating place with a lot of history. I like that it had a small description of The different Ramsey and other Pharos. It was an easy read with lots of information. ‘ It is believed that Ramses VIII was yet another son of Ramses III, but the connection of the last three kings of the New Kingdom with their predecessors cannot be confirmed.“ You read how politics always play a role in all decisions not much have change in the world.

Some very famous Pharaohs lived during this time

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 15, 2021

In this book Captivating History continues the chronicling of the histories of the Dynasties of Egypt. As there is more evidence left from that time and the pharaohs were extensive builders, more is known about these reigns than some of the previous rulers, but still a good bit is in question due to lack of documents.
It was during this era that the two most famous pharaohs (at least to most Americans) reigned.
Tutankhamen is famous because his tomb is one of the few that were undisturbed by robbers or decay. Ramses is famous because of the vast ‘monument’ building program undertaken during his tenure. It also helps that there were eleven consecutive pharaohs who took the name Ramses. They also were the end of the Dynasty. Details of the lineage, wars, peace and culture of Egypt’s ‘New Kingdom’ are all presented in an easy to understand style in this book.

Captivating, informative and interesting

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 24, 2021

This book is a wonderful reference point for the new kingdom of ancient Egypt. It’s full of facts and has information I didn’t know previously, I only gave it four stars because it takes a little while to get into the book. However, once you get past the first dozen or so pages, it starts to hook you. Id highly recommend this book!
