The Woman Who Would Be King: Hatshepsut's Rise to Power in Ancient Egypt by Kara Cooney

5.0

The story of a radically feminist, potentially queer, woman of color who rose to the highest power in the greatest kingdom in the world, and it all happened thousands of years ago. Hatshepsut is such an important and overlooked part of history. We need stories like this now more than ever.
