Three Cups of Tea
Here we drink three cups of tea to do business; the first you are a stranger, the second you become a friend, and the third, you join our family, and for our family we are prepared to do anything - even die' - Haji Ali, Korphe Village Chief, Karakora m mountains, Pakistan. Moved by the inhabitants' kindn ess, he promised to return and build a school. In 1993, after a terrifying and disastrous attempt to climb K2, a mountaineer called Greg Mortenson drifted, cold and dehydrated, into an impoverished Pakistan village in the Karakoram Mountains.
Over the next decade Mortenson built not just one but fifty-five schools - especially for girls - in remote villages across the forbidding and breathtaking landscape of Pakistan and Afghanistan, just as the Taliban rose to power. "Three Cups of Tea" is the story of that promise and its extraordinary outcome. His story is at once a riveting adventure and a testament to the power of the humanitarian spirit.
