Hatshepsut’s Temple at Deir el Bahari is about a wonderful experiment in ancient Egyptian art and architecture, a uniquely remarkable structure, but more important it provides some insights about the men and a woman who were avant guard in their thinking at a time when females dared not rule. However, given the opportunity to do so, Queen Hatshepsut ruled well and was involved in many building projects, chief of which was her mortuary temple at Deir el Bahari, on the west bank at Thebes.

Jim and Griff care for each other, each have their own sets of issues and misgivings, and yet their love for each other is touching and (at times) torrid. This loving assemblage of pictures and anecdotes, by one of Presley's first biographers, is full of the kind of critical ju
