The Sound of Music was based on whose memoir?

Maria's best-selling book, The Story of the Trapp Family Singers, was first published in 1949. Among other differences between her autobiographical account and the musical version of the story, Captain Von Trapp was actually a warm and loving parent and not the music-hating drill sergeant we first meet in the film.
