Mongolia books and reading

Books I looked at before my trip to Mongolia:

• the Bradt and Lonely Planet Mongolia Guidebooks [review]
• Poverty Reduction in Mongolia [review]
• Modern Mongolia: From Khans to Commissars to Capitalists [review]
• A History of Inner Asia [review]
• Wild East: Travels in the New Mongolia (Jill Lawless) - fluffy and a bit breathless [Amazon]
• The Religions of Mongolia - mostly about shamanism [Amazon]

Books I bought in Mongolia:

• Mongolia: Museum Highlights

I don't cover most books about earlier Mongol history here -- there are hundreds of works on Chinggis Khan.

Travel and history books that look interesting:

• Mongolian Nomadic Society: A Reconstruction of the 'Medieval' History of Mongolia [Amazon]
• Dinosaurs of the Flaming Cliffs - about Roy Chapman Andrews and the Gobi desert dinosaur digs [Amazon]
• Eagle Dreams: Searching for Legends in Wild Mongolia [Amazon]
• Hearing Birds Fly: A Nomadic Year in Mongolia [Amazon]
• Gobi: Tracking the Desert [Amazon]
• the Reverend James Gilmour's Among the Mongols - a missionary in Mongolia, 1870 to 1890 [Amazon]
