Review: The Bloody White Baron: The Extraordinary Story of the Russian Nobleman Who Became the Last Khan of Mongolia

The Bloody White Baron: The Extraordinary Story of the Russian Nobleman Who Became the Last Khan of Mongolia The Bloody White Baron: The Extraordinary Story of the Russian Nobleman Who Became the Last Khan of Mongolia by James Palmer
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

A really quite interesting biography of a Russian that arose in Mongolia in the violent reverberations from white "White" side of the Russian Civil War as doomed, cruel, and tragic proto-fascistic despot warlord betwixt China and the Soviet union. Here in the 1920s he favored the swastika as part of anti-semitic policy and cultivated occult trappings.
