Fascinating stuff.

Can anyone recommend a good book on these people and their military tactics.. Everything about them and their history. :)

Every good bookstore has something on the Mongols. Or are you talking about the Crusaders?

Do you not believe in Thor, the Viking Thunder God? If not, then do you consider your state of disbelief in Thor to be a religion? Are you an AThorist?-Darth Wong on Atheism as a religion

Yeah, the mongols.

I've been searching and have found some books. But I wanted a second opinion on some 'must have' books relating to their history.

How about going straight to the source, A Secret History of the Mongols?
Hell, even Age of Empires II has neat little tidbits of info. Most general history books have a section on the Mongols. I can't think of any particular book, thought. Just don't learn from Hercules vs. the Mongols :wink: OK?
