In this episode we open our first new book, Empires of the Steppes by Kenneth W. Harl. After a reading from his chapter on Tamerlane, we take a dive into Michael Axworthy's The Sword of Persia for a look at the origin story of Nader Shah, one of the fascinating but lesser known great conquerors of history.
