Description
In this companion volume to her Egypt Guidebook, Ellen Grady focuses on some of the remarkable female
protagonists of the Egypt chronicle, and tells us their stories.
Who are the Nile Ladies?
Quite a surprising assortment of women, including a goddess, several queens, a few saints, a philosopher mathematician/astronomer, four unconventional Englishwomen (one of whom was probably Irish), a feminist, a pop singer and a determined little Parisian, all with one thing in common: their passion for Egypt.
These are some of the figures who stand out in Egypt's incredibly long history, spanning over five thousand years.
No other civilisation lasted so long.
These are the Ladies who helped make it happen.
They shone like stars.
