An outstanding story of a
man
on a passionate pursuit of life! For all of us who have encountered the challenges of opportunity, this is a must read! The story of
one
man's quest to bring education and
school
s for girls to those regions of the world which disclaim and disdain education and the rights of woman. This book provides the energy of a cup of expresso ...let's go!
More Than Just a Good Book
This is the true story of an extraordinary
man
in an extraordinary adventure. It reminds me of old American values, the values of my childhood, when we believed in our leaders, when ordinary citizens showed extraordinary courage, self-reliance, and ingenuity in pursuit of noble goals.
I met Greg Mortenson before reading his book. He appears to be a regular, good-natured guy, unassuming in speech and dress. I wondered what all the fuss was about, why people lined up by the hundreds to get tickets to his presentation, why the huge hall was packed?
I learned that what he has d
one
is so impressive, so enlightening, so emotionally stirring, so enviable, and so motivating, you will want to help in any way you can. As a bonus of reading this book, you will come to understand our world, the current problems we face, and what we must do to secure our place in a better world. You will understand the Middle East far more than is possible by listening to our news media or our government information.
Best of all, in our society of negative news services and caveat emptor business dealings, reading this book will make you happy, and restore your faith in human nature. Now, that's a hell of a book!

Three Cups of Tea
This is
one
of the most inspiring books I have ever read! The writing is interesting and well done but mostly it was the story itself that was drawing me back into the book each day. Reading was a joy and extremely inspirational. This is not a religious inspiration, but a hu
man
one.
Greg Mortensen is one person who has found his
mission
in life to help those who need it most and in a quiet way is doing more to bring
peace
to the world than most world leaders!

One of the most important books for our time
I couldn't put this book down. It should be required reading for every
one
of our nation's leaders. What Greg was able to do should inspire all of us to rethink what we do with our lives. I immediately gave it to my college age daughter to read and have recommended it to everyone.

Three Cups Of Tea
This book may have some minor shortcomings as a piece of literature, but they are far outweighed by the importance of the author's life work and the book's message. The courage and dedication of Greg Mortenson and the CAI
tea
ms in the US and the Middle East are unbelievable.
This book does more to explain the current state of affairs in the Middle East than anything else I have seen over the last 10 years. There are more real answers on how to address the current Middle East crisis in this book than anything coming out of any politicians mouth regardless of party affiliation.
I went out and bought 5 copies (something I have never d
one
in my life) to give to others.
I think this is probably the most important book I have read in a long long
time
