I'd love the title/author on the Khan book.



"Genghis Khan and the Making of the Modern World", by Jack Weatherford; Three Rivers Press.

BTW, I read "The Guns of August" last year on the recommendation of a friend. He said it was the book that ignited his interest in military history, so much that he earned a degree in it and ultimately a career with the IDF and their spooky counterpart. Go figure.
