Stones into Schools BSY424

US$22.95

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. He shares for the first time his broader vision to promote peace through education and literacy, as well as touching on military matters, Islam, and women—all woven together with the many rich personal stories of the people who have been involved in this remarkable two-decade humanitarian effort.

《三杯茶2:石头学校》是《三杯茶》的续篇。1999年,在葛瑞格·摩顿森创办的东亚协会为巴基斯坦建起几十所学校后,阿富汗一群吉尔吉斯族人骑马六天六夜找到摩顿森,请求为他们建一所学校。这些生活在路之外、天尽头的居民,被自己的部落、祖国和整个世界遗忘,一所代表安定与文明的学校是他们留守此地最后的理由。
又一个大雪封山的季节即将到来,吉尔吉斯部族的首领在无尽的等待中气息奄奄,族人也日渐凋零。就在他们放弃希望决意离开的时候,12480英尺的世界屋脊之巅,终于立起一座学校,它站在绿草如茵的斜坡上,面朝清浅的湖泊。为了这座仅有四间教室的石头建成的学校,为了曾经的诺言,葛瑞格奔走了十年。这就是《三杯茶2:石头学校》讲述的故事。
