Bestselling historian Bettany Hughes unearths the stories of a civilisation through seven of its most precious treasures, revealing the people, power and beliefs that shaped the Nile's enduring world. Her thrilling journey of discovery explores the secrets and splendour of:

- the Great Pyramid of Giza
- the Sphinx
- Cleopatra's secret island of Philae
- Hatshepsut's temple at Deir el-Bahari
- Tutankhamen's tomb
- the underwater city at Alexandria
- the most beautiful mummy in the world.

Drawing on her own vivid first-hand encounters at each site, Hughes brings to life the splendour, drama and humanity of ancient Egypt as never before.©2026 Bettany Hughes (P)2026 Orion Publishing Group Limited
