About the book

Cleopatra recounts the life of Cleopatra VII, the final active ruler of Ptolemaic Egypt and one of the most famous women of the ancient world. Her relationships with Julius Caesar and Mark Antony placed her at the centre of the political struggle that transformed the Roman Republic into an empire. The book explores her intelligence, political skill and enduring legend while separating, where possible, the historical ruler from the later myths surrounding her.
