The Mongol army led by Genghis Khan subjugated more lands and people in twenty-?ve years than the Romans did in four hundred. In nearly every country the Mongols conquered, they brought an unprecedented rise in cultural communication, expanded trade, and a blossoming of civilization. Vastly more progressive than his European or Asian counterparts, Genghis Khan abolished torture, granted universal religious freedom, and smashed feudal systems of aristocratic privilege. From the story of his rise through the tribal culture to the explosion of civilization that the Mongol Empire unleashed, this brilliant work of revisionist history is nothing less than the epic story of how the modern world was made.

个人对蒙古乃至草原民族史都是蛮有兴趣的，常常自许身体里或者有古代某个游牧民族的血液遗存。与以往的蒙古或者草原民族史不同，这本书——正如复旦大学历史系教授姚大力在代序中所说——因为作者是一位人类学家，是以其考察的角度也有其独到之处：“蒙古对欧亚旧大陆的征服，...

大好！金戈铁马气吞山河如虎。文字亦佳。

全书行文流畅

非常能扯（中性）。行文大气美观，有吸引力。可惜有些小地方不太严谨。我读到的：蒙元以轻骑兵战术得天下，以商业帝国守成，亡于黑死病对商业的破坏。
