The One and The Only BOOK! Urgunge Onon's translation is incomparable with other translations. FYI without reading this book, don't say you know Chinghis khaan (aka Genghis Khan).

Recomended. Good book. Great for starters.

Liked it a lot (70%). But fell short by interpreting some historical parts with his own ideas (like: Chinghis wasn't the legitimate elder son of Yesuhei, Chinghis wasn't the royal blood, but Jamuha was, & etc.)

Haven't read it in English version. But I know the Mongolian version of this book. Informative. Recommended.

Osprey Books are good. But don't "buy" everything you read in Osprey series. What Osprey books lack is they don't have pretty much anything from the real Mongolian sources.

Another Osprey Book. But this one gives you a very good info on the Battle of Kalka river, that Mongolian sources lacked before.

Pretty new book. Lots of highly detailed story from Japanese side. Includes many personal stories of the samurais that fought in the battle. But you'll also find author's own interprets like how the samurais killed most of Khubilai's fleet, not the famous kamikaze, etc!

A+++ Though, the book is mostly on Inner Asian (& the Mongolian) history: from the arrival of Islam, through the various dynasties, and the Russian conquest and the fall of the Soviets. Very good!

Very good analize on the Manchuria and the Mongols. Also, explaines how the Chinese started settling in Inner Mongolia and Manchuria, why the reunification of Inner and Outer Mongolia were impossibe, etc.

With brief but good introduction of earlier (Huns, Turks, Chingghis khaan, etc.) history. But mostly concentrated on the 20th century Central Mongolia. Just as good as Mr. Rupen's book.

It is a VERY GOOD book about the 20th century Mongols. It talks about independence movement of 1911, liberation of 1921, Russian and Chinese involvements, most important who was who in those etc.

The title explains itself. It has some good information on Mongolia's involvement in the conflict.
