The Death Ships - Australia's Second Fleet
by Jenny French
In 1790 the ships that comprised the second fleet of convicts sent to Australia arrived in Port Jackson. The majority of the convicts that hadn't died on the voyage (one ship alone had a death rate of 33%) were so ill that they were unable to walk. Those that weren't carried onto the beach were barely strong enough to crawl ashore.
