Take a first-hand journey into a time, society and world full of intrigue.
First published in 1963 this book largely uses the Chinese version but with constant reference to the Mongol text. The parts selected (founded on story-tellers' tales) date from the middle of the thirteenth century.
When this was originally published in 1950 this was the fullest biography of one of China’s greatest poets that had ever appeared in any language.
