The Horde

Marie Favereau's comprehensive history of the Mongol Horde reveals it to be a vital hub of cross-border integration, trade, and cultural exchange during the 13th and 14th centuries. The book explores the Horde's complex political structure, its influence on governance and social practices across Eurasia, and its role in disseminating innovative ideas about religion, natural sciences, and tolerance. Challenging common perceptions of nomads, this work offers a detailed portrait of an empire that has profoundly shaped the development of the modern world.
