I was surprised that some people found this book boring or difficult to read. I found it incredibly interesting. While I could hardly believe the foolish ways in which Greg Mortenson put his life in jeopardy, I could not help but be impressed by all he has accomplished. I will be recommending this book to friends and acquaintances. We certainly need an alternative view of Pakistan and Afghanistan, and a way to build lasting peace. It is very telling that the U.S. military has made this book required reading for commanders in the region.
