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

4.0

I got this book for my brother for Christmas when the local Waldenbooks-turned-Borders Express closed a couple years ago; somehow it worked its way back to me. Given the focus of my history degrees (600 years later and several thousand miles further west), the gaps it helped begin to fill in were (and are) expansive.

Well-written, and well worth the time of anyone interested in multiculturalism or globalism. (Or, say, the life and legacy of Genghis Khan.)
