Free Juvaini's History of... pdf

[tantalus]

Juvaini's Genghis Khan: the History of the World Conqueror is a very important source for information about Chinggis Khan.

If you do not have it, you can get Boyle's English translation in a pdf from the UNESCO site. Just click on the "eng" on this page:

HERE

It is a large file- 36.5 MB.

Although I find it easier to read from a real book, if you don't have it at least this is free. The book can be hard to find and can be expensive.

You are welcome very much Tigin! I'm happy to be of service!

BTW, for those who may not know what makes this book so important. Juvaini, who was born in 1226, started to write his book while he was actually at Kharakhorum in 1252 during Mongke's reign.

So he wrote this not long after Chinggis Khan's death. And he would have had access to recent sources and to people who actually knew Chinggis Khan.
