Do you know a book on Ramses II? I have recently been enamored by ancient Egypt, and I want to dive in.

I just read Tutankamen's Trumpet, and I had no idea how much I loved Ancient Egypt.
I tried finding a book on Ramses II and I can't find anything. Does anyone have any recommendations? I'd love to find something.

Thank you. That's exciting news.
Do you have more? Like, I've also struggled to find literature on the empire cycle.
Now that I've read on Tut, I'm reading on Akanaten.
After that, I want to read on Cleopatra and maybe the Ptolimaic era.
Have you read 12 Ceasars? It looks like a great, fluid picture of the Roman empire, but does it focus on those dictators or does it look at the culture and politics as a whole?
