Stones Into Schools

The Leonard Lopate Show | May 10, 2010
Picking up where his bestseller Three Cups of Tea left off in 2003, Greg Mortenson recounts his efforts to establish schools for girls in Afghanistan; his work in Azad Kashmir and Pakistan after the 2005 earthquake; and the ways he has built relationships with Islamic clerics, militia commanders, and tribal leaders. In Stones Into Schools, he shares his vision to promote peace through education and literacy and weaves together personal stories of those who have been involved in his humanitarian efforts.
