Life and Times Of Rameses The Great

The Egyptian pharaoh Rameses II is often referred to as Rameses the Great. He fully lived up to the "Great" part. His reign lasted for 67 years, the second longest in Egypt's 3,000-year history. He had dozens of wives and more than 100 children, outliving many of them. He was a military leader who expanded the borders of his country. That resulted in decades of peace and prosperity for his people. He ordered huge statues of himself to be erected all over Egypt.Whiting, Jim is the author of 'Life and Times Of Rameses The Great ', published 2005 under ISBN 9781584153412 and ISBN 1584153415.
