===New Kingdom Historical Surveys===
1. Redford, Donald B. (1993). <i>[https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0691036063/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=0691036063&linkCode=as2&tag=dailyh0c-20&linkId=620428b2c332aba939a96353abc3236d Egypt, Canaan, and Israel in Ancient Times].</i> Princeton, New Jersey: Princeton University Press.
Although this book is not solely a survey of the New Kingdom, it provides an excellent analysis in chapters six through eight of ancient Egypt’s imperial period. As the title suggests, this book examines the relationships that the Egyptians had with some of their neighbors to the northeast and how those relationships ultimately affected ancient Egyptian culture. Of particular interest is Chapter Eight – “Asia in Egypt: Mosaic, Not Melting Pot” – which explores the role of the imperial Egyptian army and how importing large numbers of Canaanites as prisoners and slaves was received by non-royal Egyptians.
2. Shaw, Ian, ed. (2000). <i>[https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0192804588/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=0192804588&linkCode=as2&tag=dailyh0c-20&linkId=d583c6f6dbc6c6ef67a14d5f648085ad The Oxford History of Ancient Egypt].</i> Oxford: Oxford University Press.
This title is actually a historical survey of all ancient Egyptian history, beginning with the Pre-Dynastic Period and ending with the Roman Period. Three of the book’s fifteen chapters concern the New Kingdom specifically, with Egyptologist Jacobus van Dijk dedicating all of chapter ten to the “Amarna” and Ramesside” periods (the late Eighteenth Dynasty through the Twentieth Dynasty).
