A review by xandy
Genghis Khan and the Making of the Modern World by Jack Weatherford

4.0

I am ashamed to say how little I knew about Genghis Khan before reading this book, likely a product of my Western education and mindset (and the brutal erasing of his legacy done by various entities in the 20th century). He was an amazing historical figure that was far far ahead of his time. This book could be dry at times but, particularly in the latter half of the book, it really picked up. I want to learn more now!!
