Sad to know that gm wasnt the hero we once thought

Until 2004 krakauer had donated over 75000 to the cai and had allowed his name to be used in fundraising so he clearly takes the fraud and deceit by mortenson and the cai personally

Perhaps the most disturbing lie that krakauer uncovered was that mortensons claim to have been kidnapped for eight days in 1996 by the taliban in waziristan pakistan was an outrageous fabrication that defamed the people who actually were providing security for him as they gave him a tour of that area

The second part of the book focuses on ghost schools which includes schools that the cai claims to have built but cannot document having completed and school buildings that the cai constructed but are not in use
