"Authentic Mongolia" is a genuine and deeply insightful book that seeks to capture the true essence of Mongolian people, culture, and society. It does so through the use of official statistics, research studies, findings, and personal stories, alongside the widely recognized common knowledge among Mongolians, as well as legends and oral traditions passed down through generations.

The author, Dulguun Tsogbadrakh, a young Mongolian professional, provides a thorough introduction to her country, emphasizing its unique characteristics that allow readers to gain a deeper understanding rather than just a superficial overview. She explains terms and customs that are uniquely Mongolian, highlighting the attributes that shape Mongolian identity.

Who are the Mongolian people, and what was their identity before the time of Chinggis Khaan? Where do Mongolians originate from, and what defines them as Mongolian?

She said in her book, “As human beings, we develop deeper connections when we take the time to understand one another and share our stories in person. Similarly, I poured my heartfelt sincerity into writing this book to bridge the gap between Mongolia and your heart. My intention was to present an honest portrayal, avoiding sugarcoating of the less favorable aspects while not overly idealizing the simple things, in order to prevent any misleading representations. Ultimately, honesty and authenticity are what we truly cherish and value, don't you agree?”

This book is the culmination of her extensive experience and knowledge gained from working in diverse, cross-cultural environments, complemented by 15 years in the tourism industry. She has dedicated this work to anyone eager to learn more about Mongolia, aiming to enhance their understanding of the country.
