　　In this landmark work, one of the world’s most renownedEgyptologists tells the epic story of this great civilization, fromits birth as the first nation-state to its final absorption intothe Roman Empire—three thousand years of wild drama, boldspectacle, and unforgettable characters.

  Award-winning scholar Toby Wilkinson captures not only the lavishpomp and artistic grandeur of this land of pyramids and pharaohsbut for the first time reveals the constant propaganda andrepression that were its foundations. Drawing upon forty years ofarchaeological research, Wilkinson takes us inside an exotic tribalsociety with a pre-monetary economy and decadent, divine kings whoruled with all-too-recognizable human emotions.

  Here are the years of the Old Kingdom, where Pepi II, made kingas an infant, was later undermined by rumors of his affair with anarmy general, and the Middle Kingdom, a golden age of literatureand jewelry in which the benefits of the afterlife became availablefor all, not just royalty—a concept later underlying Christianity.Wilkinson then explores the legendary era of the New Kingdom, alost world of breathtaking opulence founded by Ahmose, whoseparents were siblings, and who married his sister and transformedworship of his family into a national cult. Other leaders includeAkhenaten, the “heretic king,” who with his wife Nefertiti broughtabout a revolution with a bold new religion; his son Tutankhamun,whose dazzling tomb would remain hidden for three millennia; andeleven pharaohs called Ramesses, the last of whom presided over themilitarism, lawlessness, and corruption that caused a crucialpolitical and societal decline.

  Riveting and revelatory, filled with new information and uniqueinterpretations, The Rise and Fall of Ancient Egypt will become thestandard source about this great civilization, one that lasted—sofar—longer than any other. 　　Toby Wilkinson graduated with a first classhonors degree in Egyptology from Downing College, University ofCambridge, winning the university’s Thomas Mulvey prize.
