In his later years, even as he outlived many of his own children and grandchildren, Ramesses II became a living god and finally, an immortal legend.Brand paints with authoritative knowledge and colourful details a compelling portrait of this legendary Pharaoh who ruled over Imperial Egypt during its Golden Age.
