To include so much about an amazingly larger-than-life personality within such a small space is a remarkable achievement. A marvel of concise and accurate biography. --John Coleman Darnell, co-author of Egypt's Golden Couple: When Akhenaten and Nefertiti Were Gods on Earth

“In this brilliantly engaging and sympathetic portrait, Toby Wilkinson has harnessed all his investigative and story-telling power to unveil the mystery of the man who became the only Pharaoh in over twenty-six centuries to be given the title ‘Great.’ In Toby’s hands, Ramesses—despite his unique title—feels like a character we all know only too well from the past and the present.”—Michael Scott, author of Ancient Worlds: An Epic History of East and West “To include so much about an amazingly larger-than-life personality within such a small space is a remarkable achievement. A marvel of concise and accurate biography.”—John Coleman Darnell, coauthor of Egypt’s Golden Couple: When Akhenaten and Nefertiti Were Gods on Earth
