The Story of the Trapp Family Singers by Maria Augusta von Trapp [MOVIE TIE-IN EDITION / 1966]

The Story of the Trapp Family Singers by Maria Augusta von Trapp 

MOVIE TIE-IN EDITION PAPERBACK [1966] SCHOLASTIC

Nice reading copy with some wear to cover and tanning to pages.  A few tiny spots of foxing to spine.  Strong binding; reads great.

With nearly 1,500 Broadway performances and five Academy Awards for the film starring Julie Andrews & Christopher Plummer,, 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.
