Was Captain Von Trapp really a strict disciplinarian to his seven children? Why was his marriage to Maria Rainer considered scandalous? How did Rodgers & Hammerstein come to adapt their story as a Broadway musical? Why did the survival of 20th Century Fox depend upon the success of the film version? The answers may surprise you. Entertainment historian John Kenrick uses rare photos, exciting performance videos and fascinating behind the scenes stories to tell the story of the Von Trapps and show us how their adventure becomes one of the most popular stage and screen hits of all time.
