AbstractHistoryArchive Description

When Hollywood actor, John Calvert, sent a distress signal stating that his luxury yacht, the Sea Fox, was in trouble somewhere off northern Australia, he offered very few details of its actual location. When eventually rescued, a tale emerged of Calvert having planned the disaster for publicity, of his infidelity and deceit, and of his exploitation and starvation of crew members.
