Ramses II by T. G. H. James, a former Keeper of Egyptian Antiquities at the British Museum, is a beautiful book about one of the most famous pharaohs of all. 

Ramses II was a warrior, builder of many great monuments, and a role model for successive pharaohs. The book provides a history of Ramses II: his accomplishments and his legacy. Photos feature his many buildings: Karnak in Thebes; his father's funerary temple on the west bank of the Nile at Luxor, his own temple (called the Ramesseum); and the temple of Abu Simbel. Also included are maps and blueprints which help readers picture the layout of the structures. This is not a "mummy book," though, so be forewarned that there are no photos of the mummy of Ramses II.  

The book (10x14 in size and stuffed with beautiful photos) is a great companion to James' Tutankhamun. I highly recommend it. The book would also be appropriate as a photo and fact resource for students in grades 5 and up.
