This is the story of American mountain climber, Greg Mortenson. In Pakistan for an attempt to climb K2, he discovers a small village and finds his purpose in life. The book details his efforts to raise money for schools for boys and girls in this poor region. It is very inspiring and a testament to the power of the individual. The second half of the book drags somewhat as the writers get caught up in describing the political chaos in Pakistan but still well worth reading. Very uplifting.
