Interesting

Egyptian History is always fascinating and perhaps no ruler captures the popular imagination more than Ramses II. This is a decent introduction to his long life and rule. The discussion of Kadesh is especially interesting.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. I was aware of Ramesses but it was nice to learn more about him than just his name.
