Mongolia is known as the home of Genghis Khan, who ruled over nomadic horsemen and founded the Mongol Empire in the thirteenth century, and the nation's people are still largely nomadic. This book takes readers on a journey through Mongolia, exploring its geography, history, culture, and people. Special sidebars, vivid photographs, and maps accompany this informative text.
