  Genghis Khan, or Temujin, famous in the West for his and his descendants'
  incursions into Eastern Europe, conquered far more territory and achieved greater
  political deeds in Asia than anywhere else. In this splendid review of the life and
  times of the founder and Great Khan (emperor) of the Mongol Empire, master
  storyteller Jacob Abbott once again succeeds in retelling history in a breathtaking
  format which will take the reader on a broad sweep of a historical process which
  ultimately had a major impact upon faraway Europe as well.Starting with an
  overview of the pastoral lifestyle which characterized the nomadic Mongol people
  of the twelfth century, Temujin's early life, his close family intrigues and his
  inevitable rise to power through his forceful will and natural leadership abilities, the
  author provides a complete backdrop to the process which led to the creation of
  one of the largest contiguous land empires of all time.From the unification of the
  quarrelsome Mongol tribes and their brutal tactics of war, to the overrunning of the
  Great Wall of China and the invasions of the lands of the Ottoman Empire, the story
  follows Temujin's adventures, with the author carefully distinguishing between
  what is probable reality and likely myth in order to provide a highly satisfying—and
  exciting—adventure story of one of the towering characters of world history.
