An Evening with David Relin
In his best-selling book Three Cups of Tea: One Mans Mission to Promote PeaceOne School at a Time, Relin tells the story of Greg Mortenson, an American mountain climber and nurse who becomes an unlikely champion of education through the accidental relationship he developed with a village in a remote region of Karakoram of Pakistan while on his way home from a failed attempt to reach the summit of K2.
A New York Times bestseller in 2007, Three Cups of Tea was also selected as Time Magazines Asia Book of the Year and as a Critics Choice by People Magazine. Relin will talk about the research and writing of this book, as well as his upcoming project See How They Shine, a book about blindness in the developing world. Relin will sign audience members own copy of Three Cups of Tea after the lecture.
