The Heartland of Mr Legg's title is that vast area of Central Asia bounded on the North by the wastelands that stretch to the ice-bound Arctic Ocean and on the South and West by the towering mountains of the Himalayas and the Hindu Kush, roughly identical with modern Siberia and Mongolia, a land of arid plains and plateaux, bereft of outlets to any navigable sea, a land peopled until modern times by nomadic tribes whose leaders such as Chingis Khan and Tamur-East and West the scourges of the then civilised world. It is of these peoples that Me Legg tells in this fascinating panorama of history. Dust jacket spine faded, inside front fold bottom edge clipped. Previous owner name inside.
