"Predecessors of Cleopatra" by Leigh North is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work aims to outline the history of Egyptian queens, gathering both historic and legendary elements to present a picture of these influential figures, leading up to the well-known Cleopatra.

The opening of this work establishes a foundation by elaborating on the historical context of ancient Egypt and the significance of the Nile River, which shaped the lives of its inhabitants. It sets the stage for the exploration of the queens in Egyptian history, emphasizing their importance and the challenges in uncovering their stories due to fragmented records and the passage of time.
