<DIV><p>In 1993, following a failed attempt to ascend K2, Greg Mortenson was inspired by a chance encounter with impoverished mountain villagers in Pakistan and promised to build them a school. From that rash, earnest promise grew one of the most incredible humanitarian campaigns of our time—Mortenson's one-man mission to counteract extremism by building schools, especially for girls, throughout the breeding ground of the Taliban.</p> <p>Award-winning journalist David Oliver Relin has collaborated on this spellbinding account of Mortenson's incredible accomplishments in a region where Americans are often feared and hated. Over the following decade Mortenson built not just one but fifty-five schools. <B>Three Cups of Tea</B> is at once an unforgettable adventure and the inspiring story of how one man really is changing the world—one school at a time.</p> <div>Make this your next book club selection and everyone saves.<br> Get 15% off when you order 5 or more of this title for your book club.<br>Simply enter the coupon code MORTENSONTHREE at checkout.<br>This offer does not apply to eBook purchases.
