The book Three Cups of Tea, by Greg Mortenson and David Relin, is about a mountaineer who is climbing an enormous mountain in Pakistan called K2 when he comes across a small village. The villagers take him in and to repay them, he promises to build a school for the school-less community. After a lot of work and obstacles Mortenson finishes his first school, and little does he know that it is the start of his new career. With the support and donations of many people in America, he finishes 54 more schools focusing on education for girls, as well as poor villages. He continues to help Pakistan even during the chaos from 9/11 and the Afghanistan War. This incredible man gives up any average live that he could have had to change villagers lives forever.

I would highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys an interesting story and a good read that will keep you at the edge of your seat.
