Three Cups of Tea

敬上一杯茶，你是一个陌生人； 再奉第二杯，你是我们的朋友； 第三杯茶，你是我的家人，我将用生命来保护你。 一个人，一个承诺，一段辛苦漫长的旅程，许许多多人的爱心，一个美丽的承诺，终于实践。” 摩顿森把一次旅行化作了一个生命的承诺，从而改变了他在路途中所遇见的人的命运，并把这些美事通过文字将看似不相干的人拉在一起，娓娓道来，作者朴素的心便很快让你跳进《三杯茶》的友情世界里去，令你也嗅到茶的清幽香味。他教晓我们爱是怎么一回事，因为有了爱，他才在黑暗中看见星辰。这是一趟非比寻常的旅程，在这旅程上，不仅有他的脚步，也可以有你我的脚步，我们愿意与摩顿森一起结伴同行吗？——《中东现场》作者张翠容 'Here we drink three cups of tea to do business; the first you are a stranger, the second you become a friend, and the third, you join our family, and for our family we are prepared to do anything - even die' - Haji Ali, Korphe Village Chief, Karakoram mountains, Pakistan. In 1993, after a terrifying and disastrous attempt to climb K2, a mountaineer called Greg Mortenson drifted, cold and dehydrated, into an impoverished Pakistan village in the Karakoram Mountains. Moved by the inhabitants' kindness, he promised to return and build a school. "Three Cups of Tea" is the story of that promise and its extraordinary outcome. Over the next decade Mortenson built not just one but fifty-five schools - especially for girls - in remote villages across the forbidding and breathtaking landscape of Pakistan and Afghanistan, just as the Taliban rose to power. His story is at once a riveting adventure and a testament to the power of the humanitarian spirit. 点击链接进入中文版： 三杯茶
