That is SUCH a good book but I find it sad that there aren't more books like it that follows up on that period or go into more details. I would love to read about the campaigns of Sobutai more, etc.
If anyone else know of similar books about the Mongols, I would love to check them out.
Thanks in advance!
At your service, sir: The Mongol Conquests: The Military Operations of Genghis Khan and Sube'etei [0]
Also, about Subotai: Genghis Khan’s Greatest General: Subotai the Valiant [1]
And, finally Timur: Tamerlane: The Earth Shaker [2], Tamerlane: Sword of Islam, Conqueror of the World [3].

Thank you SO MUCH!!!
I wish there was a way to buy you a cup of coffee or a bear via HN or a link (let me know if there is!)
Hah! I'm happy to help :) Moments like this are part of why I read HN religiously. BTW, 3/4 of these are available on Libgen. Did a quick search and thought I'd let you know.
Wow, thank you
The author has some other books but they’re mostly focused on Temujin, have you looked into those?
I have not! Thanks for the tip! Much appreciated!
The Secret History of the Mongol Queens by the same author was pretty good as well, though I liked the Genghis Khan book more.
