Good Books - February 2008

The Summit
As we are gearing up for our One Book, One Town program in March, we are focusing on exploring the themes of our town’s book Three Cups of Tea by Greg Mortenson and David Oliver Relin.
As you may (or may not) know, Mortenson began his mission not as an educator or engineer, but as a mountain climber. So to celebrate the majesty of K2 and the other great mountains of the world, we are planning a special Teen program for March…check back soon for more on the Extreme Everest Adventure!
And just to get you in the mood, here are some books on what it takes to climb:
