Summary:
Greg Mortenson has generated a global popularity as a selfless humanitarian and children’s crusader, and he’s been nominated for the Nobel Serenity Prize. He is also not really what he is apparently. As acclaimed author Jon Krakauer uncovered, Mortenson hasn’t only fabricated substantial elements of his bestselling books Three Mugs of Tea and Stones into Universities, but in addition has misused millions of dollars donated by unsuspecting admirers like Krakauer himself.
This is the tragic tale of good intentions gone very wrong.
100% of Jon Krakauer’s proceeds from the sale of Three Cups of Deceit will be donated to the ‘Stop Girl Trafficking’ task in the American Himalayan Foundation (www.himalayan-foundation.org/live/project/stopgirltrafficking).
