Easily one of our favorite episodes, this extraordinary and little-known bit of history always amazes.Deliberately erased from history, the story of the women of the Mongol Empire was one of tremendous achievement. Genghis Khan encouraged equality of the genders and his daughters, granddaughters, daughters-in-law took advantage of that to great success. Prof. Jack Weatherford is one of the foremost scholars of Mongol history and a New York Times Best Seller author. He has recovered the stories of these powerful women and shares the tales of their amazing lives with Sean Marlon Newcombe and Dawn "Sam" Alden.
