The original! Written by Maria Augusta Trapp the true story of a family forced to flee Austria by hiking a mountain trail to freedom, leaving everything behind with only singing as their means of support. “It is great because of  the faith emanating from it— the tremendous  trust of ‘consider the lilies of the field.’ Abounding in humor, freshness and love… The love of God, of one another, and of their fellowmen has proved a sustaining influence against ‘the roar of the world.’”
