I'm glad I read it but ... October 8, 2008 I found it a little strange that Mortenson co-wrote a book that depicted him so heroically. I guess modesty isn't one of his virtues. Plus the book was poorly edited and could have been cut down by at least 100 pages.
Having said that, I think this is an important, eye-opening book. Anyone who thinks they understand what's going on in Pakistan today should take a look at Mortenson's experiences. They're truly inspirational.
Absolutely Wonderful! October 7, 2008 This is one of the best books I have ever ready. It is interesting, uplifting and once you start reading it, its hard to put down. If we can have more people like Dr. Greg, the world will be a better place!
Wonderful message! October 7, 2008 Wow! What an awesome and inspiring person. For so many of us, it is easier to sit back and watch rather than participate in a thing called life. Greg Mortenson inspires us to put all of our hopes, dreams, and passions into motion whatever they may be. It goes to show that when we put negativity aside and embrace love for all people, our world becomes a much better place. As far as the writing style of this book, it keeps you on your toes following parts of it, however entertained. Though it took some reading to get a feel for the writing style, I feel it was well written. Let's remember not to shoot the messenger, but to embrace the message of the book and understand that a little compassion goes a long way.
Three Cups of Tea October 6, 2008 This was an excellent book. My only criticism is that the story gets repetitive about his quest to build schools.
Excellent humanitarian efforts October 6, 2008 This is a great book about promoting peace through education. I highly recommend this book if you wish to be inspired about the caring and sacrificing one person can make.
