Items related to Genghis Khan: Conqueror of the World
Genghis Khan was able to unite the primitive Mongol tribes of the harsh Siberian steppes and organize them into highly mobile and disciplined squadrons which he used to conquer most of the known world. In this landmark work, Leo de Hartog looks at the world situation in the 13th century and how Ghengis Khan exploited it. More than a ruthless warrior, the great Khan was an administrative genius who selected military and civilian leaders and set up bureaucratic structures that fortified his regime.

Book Description:
Genghis Khan's armies breached the Great Wall of China, captured Beijing, and crushed all resistance in Afghanistan, Persia and Southern Russia by ruthless massacres and pillage. His armies also invaded Europe. Yet until now no historically reliable book about him has been written for a popular audience. This book analyses how Genghis Khan was able to unite the primitive Mongol tribes of the harsh Siberian steppes and organize them into highly mobile and disciplined troops. It shows how he created a regime so strong that his son was able to extend the conquests after the death of Genghis Khan himself. Leo de Hartog pays particular attention to the little-studied Mongol invasion of Europe and explores Europe's contacts with the great Khan.
About the Author:
Leo Dehartog is a Dutch specialist on Mongol history who has taught extensively on the subject.
