"Three Cups of Tea" is a remarkable story of how the most ordinary man, with nothing but determination, is able to single-handedly change the world. Greg Mortenson was a part-time nurse, sleeping in his car and keeping his few possessions in a storage locker. In memory of his dead sister, he decided to climb the most difficult mountain, K2. This attempt almost cost him his life, if not for the help of the locals. A few days spent in a Pakistani village cut off from civilization shook Greg so much that he decided to raise the necessary amount of money and return to Pakistan to build a school for the village children. Today, Mortenson runs one of the most successful charities in the world and has built 145 schools and dozens of women's and health centers in the poorest villages of Pakistan and Afghanistan. The book has been published in 48 countries and has become a bestseller in every one of them. Greg Mortenson himself has twice been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.
