Reviews

"The eldest daughter in the Trapp Family Singers writes poignantly...In her telling, we learn the real details in this truly providential tale about a tight-knit, devoted, and wonderfully gifted family." -- Publishers Weekly "Agathe von Trapp's World War II story is the stuff of legend -- or, as she would have it, myth. In her memoir, Memories Before and After the Sound of Music, von Trapp, the eldest sister in the famed singing family, attempts to set the record straight...Charming." -- Washington Post "Many fans of 'The Sound of Music' are curious about how much of it is truth and how much is poetic license. This newly released paperback offers some first-person insight." -- Newsday
