Mongol Imperialism: The Policies of the Grand Qan Möngke in China, Russia, and the Islamic Lands, 1251-1259
Thomas T. Allsen
Based on his doctoral dissertation, Allsen evaluates the reign of Khubilai's elder brother & immediate predecessor, Möngke. The focus is on how Möngke mobilized the resources of the enormous empire in a coherent, sustainable way, while keeping the many local khanates (like the Golden Horde) under his personal control.
