Three Cups of Tea Chapter 17 Summary

How It All Goes Down

Cherry Trees in the Sand

  • Half of this chapter is propaganda about how terrible life is for people in Pakistan, especially girls like Fatima Batool, before Greg Mortenson, and how freaking amazing life is for girls in Pakistan after Greg Mortenson. (They've started measuring time in Pakistan in years B.M. and A.M.—before and after Mortenson.)
  • The other half is about Mortenson continuing to work miracles by supplying people with food, medicine, and education.
  • Donate money to Greg Mortenson so he can work miracles for you!
