Three Cups of Tea

A saga

I'm just about one third of the way through this book but I was hooked after the first 10 pages. Absolutely thrilling stuff! And so nice to know that it's all true.

"A stunningly simple story of how to make peace" -Bloomsbury Review

The comment above from the Bloomsbury Review says it all. Can we learn anything at all from this book?

And this comment from the author;
"Mortenson advocates girls’ education as the top priority to promote economic development, peace and prosperity, and says, “you can drop bombs, hand out condoms, build roads, or put in electricity, but until the girls are educated a society won’t change”.
