This astonishing story of one man’s journey to build over fifty schools across Afghanistan and Pakistan is not without controversy. Despite the fact that numerous reports have confirmed Mortenson to have fabricated some of the events mentioned, this book remains a fascinating, albeit fictionalized, look into real-world humanitarian work in the Middle East.
