Description

In this dramatic first-person narrative, Greg Mortenson picks up where he left off in Three Cups of Tea in 2003, recounting his relentless, ongoing efforts to establish schools for girls in Afghanistan. He narrates his extensive work in Azad Kashmir and Pakistan following the devastating earthquake that struck the region in 2005 and the unique methods by which he has built relationships with Islamic clerics, militia commanders, and tribal leaders, while simultaneously avoiding firefights with insurgents and surviving an eight-day armed kidnapping by the Taliban. He shares for the first time his broader vision of promoting peace through education and literacy, while also touching on military issues, Islam, and women—all woven together with many rich personal stories of the people involved in this remarkable two-decade humanitarian effort.
