Lieutenant General Watkin Tench (6 October 1758 - 7 May 1833) was a British marine officer who is best known for publishing two books describing his experiences in the First Fleet, which established the first settlement in Australia in 1788. His two accounts, Narrative of the Expedition to Botany Bay and Complete Account of the Settlement at Port Jackson provide an account of the arrival and first four years of the colony. Tench joined His Majesty's Marine Forces, Plymouth division, as a second lieutenant on 25 January 1776, aged 17. He was promoted to first lieutenant on 25 January 1778 at the age of 19 years and 3 months.

Since our disembarkation in the preceding January, the efforts of every one hadbeen unremittingly exerted, to deposit the public stores in a state of shelter and security, and to erect habitations for ourselves. We were eager to escape from tents, where afold of canvas, only, interposed to check the vertic beams of the sun in summer, and thechilling blasts of the south in winter. A markee pitched, in our finest season, on anEnglish lawn; or a transient view of those gay camps, near the metropolis, which somany remember, naturally draws forth careless and unmeaning exclamations of rapture, which attach ideas of pleasure only, to this part of a soldier's life. But an encampmentamidst the rocks and wilds of a new country, aggravated by the miseries of bad diet, and incessant toil, will find few admir
