Book Summary and Reviews of The Secret History of the Mongol Queens by Jack Weatherford

Media Reviews

"Starred Review. Highly recommended for all readers, especially students of history, Asian studies, or women's studies, wanting to learn more about these Mongol women, who have been studied less than their famous father." - Library Journal

"Weatherford amply demonstrates how subsequent male relations waged a backlash against these women rulers until the remarkable rise of Manduhai and her ability to reunite the squabbling Mongol tribes. Uplifting, entertaining history." - Kirkus Reviews
