AWESOME! November 17, 2008
Inspirational, moving, beautiful. This book will make you think about what you are doing in your life and what more you COULD be doing. Did you know that if you order the book through [...] Amazon will donate 7% to the charity? I wish I'd known that before I purchased my copy directly through Amazon.
What I Learned From "Three Cups of Tea" November 17, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
What I learned from "Three Cups of Tea" was very simple: if you want to help win the war on al Qaeda, contribute as much as you can to the Central Asia Institute (https://www.ikat.org/). The key to any counter-insurgency is to gain the support of the people (see http://alglobus.net/politics/FieldManual.html) and nobody is doing more of that with less than Greg Mortenson's organization.
 Alas... Boring November 17, 2008

I am one of those lone voices that quietly has to say this book did nothing for me. My friend up the street said I wouldn't be able to put it down, but I did.
The first three pages were excellent and I had great hope of a great read, but alas Mortenson grows long winded and wearisome. His details are not interesting, though they could have been given the fascinating place he was in, but instead he is boring and pedantic.

 Oh, how I wish Greg Mortenson had written this book! November 16, 2008

Oh, how I wish Greg Mortenson had written this book! I am full of admiration for Greg's strength of character and his tremendous achievements. Three Cups of Tea, written by a journalist, does not do justice to the subject matter; littered with names and places, the essence evaporates, leaving a meagre illumination.
