Product Description:
The astonishing, uplifting story of a real-life Indiana Jones and his humanitarian campaign to use education to combat terrorism in the Taliban’s backyard

Anyone who despairs of the individual’s power to change lives has to read the story of Greg Mortenson, a homeless mountaineer who, following a 1993 climb of Pakistan’s treacherous K2, was inspired by a chance encounter with impoverished mountain villagers and promised to build them a school. Over the next decade he built fifty-five schools—especially for girls—that offer a balanced education in one of the most isolated and dangerous regions on earth. As it chronicles Mortenson’s quest, which has brought him into conflict with both enraged Islamists and uncomprehending Americans, Three Cups of Tea combines adventure with a celebration of the humanitarian spirit.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - MY NEW LIFE BOOK
THIS STORY OF GREG'S TENACIOUS VICTORY WILL REMAIN A LIFE BOOK i WANT TO SHARE WITH OTHERS. IT HAS GIVEN ME INSIGHT INTO A DISTANT REGION. A TIME LINE, GLOSSARY AND EVEN A LIST OF CHARACTERS WOULD HAVE BEEN EVEN BETTER.THANK YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME TO SHARE THIS EXPERIENCE WITH THE WESTERN WORLD.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - a little humanity
In this egomaniac, me age, it is refreshing to read about someone who thinks about helping others. Recommend this book to those who are xenophobic and who are afraid to travel outside the well trodden luxury hotel path.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - When there is a Will, there is a Way.
What Greg Mortenson has done shows how human will to make a difference and be of some help can break all the barriers. He faced both cultural and financial barriers and over came. A Persian poet says: Put step in the way, And the way will tell you how to go ahead. And Mortenson is a proof of how "the way" takes you ahead when you have a certain will but no clue how to proceed. It also shows how humanity stands far above all differences, be it cultural, lingual, religious ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - EXCELLENT..WORTHY READ!
I FOUND THE BOOK FASCINATING. THE BOOK WAS INSPIRATIONAL AND VERY EDUCATIONAL REGARDING AFGHANISTAN AND THE RIGHT FOR WOMAN'S EQUALITY AND RIGHTS WITHIN THAT COUNTRY. TO ACHIEVE HIS GOALS AND DREAMS, WITH LITTLE MORE THAN A WISH AND PRAYER, PROVED THAT TENACITY DOES PAYS OFF. I DEFINITELY RECOMMEND IT.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - More than meets the eye...
Greg Mortenson's personal transformation from a mountain climber to an agent of social change in Afghanistan is a fine reason to read this book.

Even more compelling is the extensive first-hand observation of a culture that remains a mystery to the West. As the US becomes increasingly engaged in military operations in Afghanistan, I urge readers to use this memoir to expand their understanding of a remote, foreign and strategically vital part of our world.
