Genghis Khan and the Mongol Empire is a landmark achievement in the study of the famed but little understood conqueror, an historic figure who has attained mythic stature but a tainted reputation because he is known primarily from histories written by those he conquered rather than those he led. This book presents a startling new view of Genghis as the world's greatest civilizer, and reveals his profound influence on the very shape of the modern world and the aspirations of its societies.. More than 400 color photographs of landscapes and artifacts illustrate 30 concise and informative essays and two dozen sidebar stories on significant characters and events in the development of the Khan’s Empire.
