- Summary: Miriam’s life between watching the Egyptian princess discover baby Moses’ basket and helping the adult Moses lead the Israelites out of Egypt. Beatrice Gormely has attempted to fill in some of these gaps in the Biblical story with an imaginative but believable story. The story is told not only from Miriam’s point of view, but also from the point of view of the lady-in-waiting of the Egyptian princess. It overflows with descriptions of both Hebrew and Egyptian beliefs and customs.
