Condition: good, good. 230, maps, notes, bibliography, index, some pencil underlining to text, DJ somewhat worn, soiled, and small edge tear/chip. So terrible was Genghis Khan's reputation that when Peking surrendered to him in 1215, 60, 000 girls avoided capture by throwing themselves from the walls to their deaths. Yet the author shows that Genghis was not crueler than other rulers of the time--only more successful. Seller Inventory # 46105
