Thutmose III was without question one of Egypt's greatest
pharaohs. His 54-year reign was packed with momentous events as
well as being unusually long. Thutmose III includes an overview of
his life, and detailed examinations of civil administration, the
religion and cults, the monumental architecture and royal building
program, royal tombs and iconography, royal portraiture and
ideology, the artistic production, the Northern and Southern
campaigns, as well as the Aegean and other foreign visitors to
Egypt during Thutmose's time. Finally, the book concludes with
a look at the end of his reign and the accession of Amenhotep II.
This extensive treatment of a pivotal figure in the ancient
Mediterranean world during the Late Bronze Age will provide a
uniquely comprehensive view of one of Egypt's greatest pharaohs
and will be of interest to a wide audience, including specialists
in Egypt and the Near East, graduate and undergraduate students,
and those with a general interest in Egypt. Eric H. Cline is
