Mountains Beyond Mountains

In the book "Mountains Beyond Mountains" news reporter Tracy Kidder claims how Paul Farmer doesn't like the U.S.'s idea of aiding Haiti. Kidder supports this claim by first introducing the setting. Then, Kidder shows that U.S. is trying to help Haiti because it is all business. Then, Kidder explain that U.S. sent eight men to aid 150,000 people. Finally, the author shows us how the captain gets angry when one of the soldiers helps out a pregnant woman. Kidder's purpose is to address the issue of Haiti in order to get people to help out. He adopts a serious, and straight forward tone for people who can help out.
