Book Review: Three Cups Of Tea
This book came out three years ago, but I just finished reading it and was captivated.
Three Cups of Tea by Greg Mortenson
For those of you who, like me, somehow missed this book when it first came out, here’s the scoop.
After a failed attempt to climb K2, Mortenson descends from the mountain ill and disoriented. He washes up in the village of Korphe in northern Pakistan, where villagers help him get better. He is grateful but isn’t sure how to thank them properly, until he sees village children holding their lessons outdoors because they have no school. He promises to come back and build one.
