Subtitle: One Man's Mission to Promote Peace . . . One School at a Time
Greg Mortenson is working to change the world, one school at a time. The fact that he's doing it in remote, impoverished areas of Pakistan and Afghanistan makes it truly amazing.
Reminds me of this quote from Margaret Mead: "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has."
I think this one may become a bookray. It should be shared with lots of people.

Notable quote: "I can understand shooting men and bombing buildings. In a time of war these things happen, as they always have. But why? Why did the Taliban have to kill our land?"
