John Keay is a good place to start but he makes at least two very silly errors:
>Genghis Khan was 20 when he united the Mongols.
he was 40
>The Manchu hair queue resembles those of Alaskan natives, who also speak a Tungusic language

Tungusic peoples like the Manchu are ancient forest-steppe Siberians, which puts them on one end of some cultural continua with native Alaskans, cf. Dene-Yeniseian hypothesis and North Pacific Rim cultural continuum. Yes, Siberian people and Native Alaskans have some shared cultural elements. Yes, some native Alaskans cut and braid their hair. No, Tungusic languages are not spoken in Alaska.
