Title: Biased Account
Review: A very interesting read. Be warned however, that Genghis Khan's life only accounts for approximately 1/3rd of the book as the rest covers the subtitle.The author goes to great lengths to point out how evil Christian Europe is compared with the Great Khan. His violent exploits are merely glossed over. This reactionary work tries to break the stereotypes Genghis Khan has found himself encumbered with over the centuries. Instead of embracing his legacy however I find myself questioning the veracity of the source material.Overall though this book was worth picking up if not only for the accounting of Genghis Khan's life. While the exploits of his brothers and grandchildren are certainly important historically they aren't nearly as interesting.
Is the review positive or negative?
