The Secret History of the Mongols, written after Chinggis's death in the thirteenth century, is a great historical saga recounting not only his turbulent life and times, but also that of his loved ones, ancestors, and heirs. This remarkable new translation of the earliest surviving work written in Mongolian offers insight into a world of warlords, kinship, horses, yurts, shamans, and vast landscapes, where bloody battles and violent family conflicts are impelled by Heaven's destiny.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTranslated with an introduction by Christopher P.
