Khubilai Khan's Lost Fleet

July 6th 2009 06:26

Khubilai Khan's Lost Fleet
History's Greatest Naval Disaster
James Delgado 2009

This is one of those popular history books that really do live up to the blurbs and catalogue reviews! It covers the causes and consequence of the Mongol Emperor Khubilai's attempts to invade Japan from both the Japanese and Chinese viewpoints. It also reviews archaeological discoveries of the remains of the fleet and the problem of if and how the "divine wind" destroyed the fleet. A great read! Look for it in your bookshop or library!
