The History of the Huns. How the Legendary Nomads Lived and Fought

Professor Otto Menchen-Helfen of the University of California dedicated a large part of his life to the study of the world of the Huns. He traveled for many years, visiting excavations in Hungary, Afghanistan, Nepal, and Mongolia, in the Caucasus... and at the Great Wall of China. Armed with extensive knowledge in philology, linguistics, and the history of Asian art, Menchen-Helfen gathered information from a variety of sources, classified it, and offered his interpretation of the world of the Huns, presenting a plausible account of the economy, social structure, military actions, art, and religion of this warlike tribe. The book is richly illustrated with rare photographs collected by the author.
