Nice coffee table book on the history of the "Sound of Music." Beautiful pictures throughout (although some are taken right from the movie and blown up, which are a bit blurry). Covers the life of the real Maria and the Von Trapp family, then goes into the stage show, the movie, and finishes with recent stage revivals. Lovely history of this wonderful musical.

Well, I liked this. Duh.
There were some fairly dull parts about writers and producers and stuff, while I just wanted more details on my favorite movie. The pictures were GREAT even if some of them were from various stage versions instead of the "real movie" or the "real people." Good for happily obsessed SoM fans.
