About

Genghis Khan was by far the greatest conqueror the world has ever known. He was credited with paving the way for the Renaissance, and condemned as the most heinous murderer in history. But who was Genghis Khan, and how did an illiterate nomad, a boyhood outcast, rise to such colossal power, eclipsing Alexander the Great, Julius Caesar and Napoleon?

Genghis Khan's story is the triumph of the Mongol people - a loose collection of fractious tribes. United under Genghis, a strategist of astonishing cunning and versatility, they built an empire that stretched from the Pacific Ocean to the gates of civilized Europe. Combining the latest scholarship with an absorbing account of the strange world of the Mongols, Frank McLynn brings to life one of history's most revered, yet feared men.
