Three Cups of Tea is a memoir by Greg Mortenson and David Oliver Relin about Mortenson's transition from a mountaineer to a humanitarian dedicated to building schools for girls in Pakistan and Afghanistan. After a failed climb of K2, Mortenson was helped by a remote village and, in return, promised to build a school, which led to the establishment of the Central Asia Institute and a lifelong commitment to education in the region. The book details his efforts to build schools against significant odds, navigating political conflict and challenging local culture to provide education.
