About the Book:This book is a surprisingly good biography that contains the true story of a remarkable family and group of entertainers who were one of the most popular music groups of the 60s, 70s and even to today. It was written by a good friend of their family as they grew up; Paul H. Dunn, who was also a General Authority in the LDS Church. He has captured the fun and the fascination of show business, along with its more serious moments, as these have made their impact upon this family. There emerges a heart-warming, intensely readable account of the Osmonds' route to success, from the earliest beginnings to current days of multiple gold-record status and international fame. All this is accompanied by 130 photographs. The Foreword by Ronald J Clark:This book contains the true story of a remarkable family and group of entertainers. The author has captured the fun and the fascination of show business, along with its more serious moments, as these have made their impact upon this family. There emerges a heart-warming, intensely readable account of the Osmonds’ route to success, from the earliest beginnings to current days of multiple gold-record status and international fame. Recording the route was the easier part. The bigger challenge was to portray the real Osmonds. To obtain the material for this, Paul H. Dunn, who already knew the family well, spent untold hours in interviews with them, both in family sessions and in private talks with family members all the way from George down to young Jimmy. The results fully justify the effort, for as a close friend and associate of the family I can assure the reader that their portrayal in this book is completely true to life. The author has caught their warmth, their genuineness, and their zest for life. Best of all, he has woven this all into the Osmond story in an interesting and entertaining style that defies any attempt to put the book down before reaching the last page. Many readers will already have seen and heard the Osmonds on stage or on television. Many more will want to after reading this book. But beyond any stimulus to enjoy their performing skills, the book will help the reader to know and enjoy the Osmonds. Having had that fine experience myself, I welcome the book for its power to measurably bring that experience to others. Copyright © 2018-2023 TDM Inc.
