About the book

Lives of the Mongol Warlords brings together Genghis Khan: Conqueror of the World by Leo de Hartog, Khubilai Khan: His Life and Times by Morris Rossabi and Tamerlane: His Rise and Rule by Beatrice Forbes Manz. These biographies examine three rulers who extended steppe power across much of Eurasia. The volumes explore conquest alongside the difficult business of governing territories with different languages, religions and political traditions. Read together, they trace the relationship between military leadership, dynastic ambition and administration, while distinguishing the careers and historical settings of men too easily grouped under a single image of the Mongol conqueror.
