Synopsis
Greg Mortenson recounts his experiences as co-founder of the Central Asia Institute, a nongovernmental organization that, since the 1990s, has done exemplary work in Pakistan and Afghanistan, where it has built and operated schools and improved public health. He tells how, by working side-by-side, the villagers and the staff of the CAI have overcome challenges, drawn on strengths, and worked toward breaking down the ignorance and prejudice that might otherwise have divided them. It has not been easy and the need is great, says Mortenson, and underscores the fact that the positive work of NGOs like the Central Asia Institute can go far in fighting terrorism.

Publisher's Note
The inspiring account of one man's campaign to build schools in the most dangerous, remote, and anti-American reaches of Asia.


Traces how the author, having been rescued and resuscitated by Himalayan villagers after a failed attempt to climb K2, worked to build schools that would benefit the young girls who were forbidden an education by Taliban restrictions.

Industry Reviews
"It is not often that a sense of beauty and humanity creep into chronicles about so-called war zones like Afghanistan. Perhaps this is the real beauty of THREE CUPS OF TEA: Mortenson's mission is a relentlessly positive one, and his ability to reveal the beauty and refuse to accept the brutal reality around him is an inspiring, heroic, and at times even crazy pursuit for the positive to become the norm in places that have taken their fair share of neglect."
