Description:
New book, 383 pages. Kublai inherited the largest land empire in history from his grandfather, Genghis Khan - and doubled it. His realm reached from the Pacific to the Urals, from Siberia to Afghanistan - 60 percent of all Asia, one fifth of the world's inhabited land area. He was perhaps the most powerful man who ever lived. Using China's vast wealth and military power, coupled with shrewd government, he redefined the course of history, giving China a new self-image - the root of the twenty-first century superpower. This authoritative biography, enriched by John Man's extensive travels through Mongolia and China, brings Kublai Khan and his world vividly to life, and traces their significance for the world today.
