Welcome to the Good Book Club Podcast where we make all our book club discussions and bonus events available for listeners to enjoy. Today's episode features our book club discussion of "Genghis Khan and the Making of the Modern World" by Jack Weatherford. Some think of Genghis Khan as a relentless, bloodthirsty barbarian on horseback, leading a ruthless band of nomadic warriors in the looting of the civilized world. Others consider him a visionary leader who triggered an unprecedented explosion of technologies, trade, and ideas. We delve into all of these possiilties in this fascinating discussion led by Bruce Christiansen. This book club meeting was orginally recorded on May 21st 2023.
