In this historical study Giles deals with the relations of Egypt with its great power neighbours and its own vassals during the 18th Dynasty. The study is based on the Amarna archive, and considers various Hittite documents. It includes a chapter by Hennessey on the archaeology of Syria and Palestine and Cyprus in the Amarna Age.

Although co-regencies have been acknowledged in Egyptian history, it has been difficult to pinpoint evidence in support of them and little work has been carried out on the Middle Kingdom rulers. Here, Giles examines fragmentary sources for the political history of the late 18th Dynasty and particularly for the co-regency of Amenhotep and his son Akhenaten, and of Akhenaten and his son-in-law Smenkhkare. Giles puts forward a case in support of these two co-regencies by looking at royal burials and espeically Tomb 55 in the Valley of the Kings.
