Stones into schools promoting peace with books, not bombs, in Afghanistan and Pakistan

Mortenson, Greg (Author). Hosseini, Khaled. (Added Author). Leoni, Atossa. (Narrator). OverDrive, Inc. (Added Author).

Summary: In this dramatic first-person narrative, Greg Mortenson picks up where "Three Cups of Tea" left off in 2003, recounting his relentless, ongoing efforts to establish schools for girls in Afghanistan; his extensive 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 shootouts with feuding Afghan warlords and surviving an eight-day armed abduction by the Taliban.
