{"product_id":"the-mongol-empire-john-man-9780552168809","title":"The Mongol Empire: Genghis Khan, His Heirs and the Founding of Modern China","description":"\u003cp\u003eGenghis Khan is one of history's immortals: believing he was divinely protected, he united warring clans to create an empire that ran across much of Asia. Under his grandson, Kublai Khan, the vision evolved into a more complex religious ideology, justifying further expansion. Kublai doubled the empire's size until, in the late 13th century, he and the rest of Genghis's 'Golden Family' controlled one fifth of the inhabited world. Along the way, he conquered all China, gave the nation the borders it has today, and then, finally, discovered the limits to growth. In terms of the sheer scale of the conquests, never has a vision and the character of one man had such an effect on the world. This book provides a unique account of the Mongol Empire, from young Genghis to old Kublai, from a rejected teenager to the world's most powerful emperor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Man\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0552168807\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780552168809\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Corgi Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 400\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.70h x 5.00w x 1.10d","brand":"John Man","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43981024755967,"sku":"9780552168809","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_97d88588-310f-49a2-8982-68090388225a.jpg?v=1683253248","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-mongol-empire-john-man-9780552168809","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
