Journals of the First Fleet
There are 20 known contemporary accounts of the First Fleet made by people sailing in the Fleet, including journals (both manuscript and published) and letters.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.websterworld.com/websterworld/aust/f/firstfleetscribes891.html )〕 The eleven ships of the Fleet, carrying over 1,000 convicts, soldiers and seamen, left England on 13 May 1787 and arrived in Botany Bay between 18 and 20 January 1788 before relocating to Port Jackson to establish the first European settlement in Australia, a penal colony which became Sydney. At least 12 people on the Fleet kept a journal of their experiences, some of which were later published, while others wrote letters home during the voyage or soon after their arrival in Australia. These personal accounts of the voyage were made by people including surgeons, officers, soldiers, ordinary seamen, and Captain Arthur Phillip, who commanded the expedition. Only one known account, that of James Martin, was by a transported convict. Their journals document the day to day experiences of those in the Fleet, and record significant events including the first contact between the European settlers and the Aboriginal people of the area. In 2009, the manuscript journals were included in ''The Australian Memory of the World Register'', a regional register associated with the UNESCO international ''Memory of the World'' programme.
