John Man’s study of Genghis Khan is a thoroughly captivating account of the man himself, his historical impact, & his cultural impact today. Nowadays, Genghis is by turns scourge, hero & demi-god. To Muslims, Russians & Europeans, he is a mass-murderer. Yet in his homel&, Mongols revere him as the nation’s father; Chinese honour him as dynastic founder; & in both countries, worshippers seek his blessing. This book is more than just a gripping account of Genghis’ rise & conquests; John Man uses first-hand experiences to reveal Khan’s enduring influence

Genghis Khan was by far the greatest conqueror the world has ever known, whose empire stretched from the Pacific Ocean to central Europe, including all of China, the Middle East & Russia. So how did an illiterate nomad rise to such colossal power, eclipsing Alexander the Great, Julius Caesar & Napoleon? Credited by some with paving the way for the Renaissance, condemned by others for being the most heinous murderer in history, who was Genghis Khan? His actual name was Temujin, & the story of his success is that of the Mongol people: a loose collection of fractious tribes who tended livestock, considered bathing taboo & possessed an unparalleled genius for horseback warfare. United under Genghis, a strategist of astonishing cunning & versatility, they could dominate any sedentary society they chose. Combining fast-paced accounts of battles with rich cultural background & the latest scholarship, Frank Mc Lynn brings vividly to life the strange world of the Mongols, describes Temujin`s rise from boyhood outcast to become Genghis Khan, & provides the most accurate & absorbing account yet of one of the most powerful men ever to have lived. ...
