School Library Journal Review
Gr 8 Up Cleopatra's genius, beauty, and ruthless ambition changed the course of the ancient world. Centuries after her death, her larger-than-life persona comes alive in this vibrant biography. Her fabled exploits rival any adventure story. However, the Hooblers use solid research to show that Cleopatra was far more than just the ``Siren of the Nile.'' Her life was a series of bold gambles in her quest for world domination, a deadly game she ultimately lost. Memorable quotations from ancient historians enliven the margins of almost every page. The many black-and-white photographs of ancient artifacts and of later depictions of Cleopatra's life are skillfully integrated into the text. Well researched, well written, well illustrated, and well worth reading. Marguerite F. Raybould, Glendale Public Library, Calif. (c) Copyright 2010.
