The Mongols
Jul 24th, 2008 by Nut

A couple of weeks ago I went to see the very good Mongol and that’s why I’m currently reading Genghis Khan and the Making of the Modern World. When I was a little kid I saw some kind of special or documentary on the Mongols and I was blown away by it/them. Ever since I’ve always thought of Genghis Kahn as one of the greatest leaders who ever was.
Anyway, the book is fantastic (I’m almost done with it) and the movie was good. It focused more on the early life of Genghis Kahn, so it doesn’t show as much of the cool stuff like how the Mongols fought and their different strategies. But just wanted to give a heads up to anyone that is interested in watching more Mongol stuff: A&E is airing a one-hour show called Genghis Kahn on Friday at 3am. So set that DVR and if you can, make sure you record the HD version!
