"'Genghis Khan' means 'greatest of rulers, emperor of all men.' A Mongolian nomad was awarded this title after leading his people to victory in Asia at the turn of the 13th century. This captivating biography relays why he has retained this moniker throughout history, from a daring escape as a young man named Temüjin to his ambitious empire-building across three continents."--
