Description

Nearly everyone has seen the musical The Sound of Music, which is the most successful musical of all time. The musical comes from the true story of the Trapp family. This book was written by Baroness Maria Augusta Trapp, detailing her arrival at the Trapp house, the months she spent there as a tutor (anxiously awaiting the day when she could return to the nunnery), her romance with the baron, and the family's escape from Nazi-occupied Austria to freedom in America. Read the real story of the woman who brought music back into the life of a grateful family.

Publisher's Description of Story of the Trapp Family Singers

With nearly 1,500 Broadway performances, six Tony Awards, more than three million albums sold, and five Academy Awards, The Sound of Music, based on the lives of Maria, the baron, and their singing children, is as familiar to most of us as our own family history. But much about the real-life woman and her family was left untold.

Here, Baroness Maria Augusta Trapp tells in her own beautiful, simple words the extraordinary story of her romance with the baron, their escape from Nazi-occupied Austria, and their life in America.

Now with photographs from the original edition.
