A narrative history of how Attila, Genghis Khan and the so-called barbarians of the steppes shaped world civilization.
The barbarian nomads of the Eurasian steppes have played a decisive role in world history, but their achievements have gone largely unnoticed. These nomadic tribes have produced some of the world’s greatest Attila the Hun, Genghis Khan and Tamerlane, among others. Their deeds still resonate today. Indeed, these nomads built long-lasting empires, facilitated the first global trade of the Silk Road and disseminated religions, technology, knowledge and goods of every description that enriched and changed the lives of so many across Europe, China and the Middle East. From a single region emerged a great many peoples—the Huns, the Mongols, the Magyars, the Turks, the Xiongnu, the Scythians, the Goths—all of whom went on to profoundly and irrevocably shape the modern world.
In this new, comprehensive history, Professor Kenneth W. Harl vividly re-creates the lives and world of these often-forgotten peoples from their beginnings to the early modern age. Their brutal struggle to survive on the steppes bred a resilient, pragmatic people ever ready to learn from their more advanced neighbors. In warfare, they dominated the battlefield for over fifteen hundred years. Under charismatic rulers, they could topple empires and win their own.

This great historian also has a lecture series, “The Barbarian Empires of the Steppes” - & the somewhat aptly-named Harl did a collection of lectures on the Vikings.

Harl is the sort of teacher I wish I have had.
I listened to the TGC lecture, and looking forward to this one.
According to the preamble there should be some new material.

Some non-fiction that actually is non-fiction, excellent, this is the kind of book worth listening to.
