Summary: "The Mongols: A History" by Jeremiah Curtin is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book delves into the expansive and often brutal history of the Mongol Empire, focusing on its rise under the leadership of Genghis Khan and its significant impact on both Asia and Europe. It aims to shed light on the cultural, social, and political dynamics of the Mongols, mediating their legendary conquests and the ensuing territorial transformations. The opening of "The Mongols: A History" introduces the concept of the term 'Mongol,' tracing its evolution from its origins to its application as a broad descriptor of various tribes and peoples across the world, including historical references linked with Attila the Hun to contemporary implications. It details the challenging environment of the early Mongols, emphasizing the harsh conditions that shaped their fierce warrior culture and the importance of dynastic lineage, particularly focusing on the figure of Temudjin (later known as Genghis Khan). This section sets the stage for exploring Temudjin's rise to power, the formative myths surrounding his origin, and the violent conflicts that defined early Mongol society, thus laying the groundwork for the epic narrative that follows in the text.
