A wonderful read that expertly follows Cleopatra's life and family tree. Schiff outlines the various and multiple intrigues of royal life illustrating just how dangerous it was for any member of the family to succeed to the throne. Cleopatra was more than Mark Anthony and Caesar’s lover, much more - she was an outstanding leader of people, a military strategist, and a true Egyptian- proud and protective of her country and its people.
