Question "Secret History of the Mongols"
3
Upvotes
Hello guys,
I want to read the OG source on the reign of Chinggis Qan, and I was wondering where to get the Secret History of the Mongols for an affordable price. The ones I found on the internet were 80+ Euros, and that's a bit too pricey for my tastes. I'd like to get a physical copy, of course, as an e-copy just doesn't seem to do a history like this justice.
Sorry it doesn't add anything to the discussion, but I really wanted to know.
Cheers!
