description: A true story with more drama and excitement than fiction. In 1836, the barque Stirling Castle shipwrecked on Australia's Great Barrier Reef, leaving the crew, Captain Fraser, and his wife at the mercy of cannibalistic aborigines. The captain was soon murdered; Mrs. Fraser remained alive, forced to endure humiliation as a slave of the tribe--and more tragically, to witness her new baby drowned. A remarkable rescue finally saved her--and her subsequent misadventures in England provide an intriguing finale to this sensational tale.
