About the book: year / Since 2006 I have been working on this topic. I have collected, analyzed and systematized interesting archival and historical materials, starting from the time of the Mongol Horde (XII century). Thus was born an essay novel with the working title “When the secret becomes apparent. Genghis" from the series "Procrustean Bed of History". This is still only the first book, in the plan there are also: “Batu”, “Ivan the Terrible”, “Peter I”. The capital of the Great Mongol Empire, the city of Karakorum, was much closer than we used to think. Interesting historical material is framed in an artistic framework, somewhere there are deviations from strict scientific canons, so I want to hope that the orthodox adherents of the “classical school” will not blame me for the lack of academic degrees. The book is intended for a wide range of readers Contents: 1. Oleg Bazhanov: Genghis Khan 2. Oleg Ivanovich Bazhanov: Batu. Golden Horde
