Tea Time with Terrorists: A Motorcycle Journey into the Heart of Sri Lanka's Civil War
Advance Praise for Tea Time with Terrorists
"Meadows' courage and the personal relationships he builds with the people he meets in Sri Lanka reveals the extent to which our fears are only a sign of how much we still need to learn. His warm approach and bridge-building provides an insight to civil strife that is unprecedented in other works. An excellent undertaking." —Greg Mortenson, Three Cups of Tea
"'I went because knowledge is terror’s strongest antidote,' Mark Stephen Meadows writes near the start of his book, and he achieves this goal well. Tea Time grants knowledge not just about Sri Lanka, but about terrorism, its genesis—a deadly serious subject, but all told in a voice as familiar as an old friend's." —Peter Allison, author of Whatever You Do, Don't Run: True Tales of a Botswana Safari Guide and Don't Look Behind You!: A Safari Guide's Encounters with Ravenous Lions, Stampeding Elephants, and Lovesick Rhinos
"Meadows's journey along the razor's edge brings refreshing clarity and enlightenment. He lets you feel, smell, taste and touch Sri Lanka in its moment of tumult. A great read for those seeking more than news reports and academic analysis. Highly recommended." —Robert Young Pelton, author of The World's Most Dangerous Places and Licensed to Kill
