The letters also shed light on the political and social context of ancient Egypt and Rome, including the power struggles and alliances that shaped the era.Despite their authenticity being questioned by many historians, The Cleopatra Papers remains a fascinating and entertaining read for those interested in ancient history and the lives of powerful women.
