In this dramatic story; Greg Mortenson picks up where "Three Cups of Tea" left off in 2003, recounting his ongoing efforts to establish schools for girls in Afghanistan; his extraordinary work in Azad Kashmir and Pakistan after a massive earthquake hit the region in 2005; and the unique ways he has built relationships with Islamic clerics, militia commanders and tribal leaders, even as he was dodging shoot-outs with feuding Afghan warlords and surviving an eight-day armed abduction by the Taliban. For the first time he shares his broader vision to promote peace through education and literacy - woven together with the many fascinating personal stories of the people who have been involved in this remarkable two-decade humanitarian effort.
