Description:
Now in one definitive volume, Botany Bay and the First Fleet is a full, authentic account of the beginnings of modern Australia.
In 1787 a convoy of eleven ships, carrying about 1400 people, set out from England for Botany Bay, on the east coast of New South Wales. In deciding on Botany Bay, British authorities hoped not only to rid Britain of its excess criminals, but also to gain a key strategic outpost and take control of valuable natural resources.
According to the conventional account, it was a shambolic affair- underprepared, poorly equipped and ill-disciplined. Here, Alan Frost debunks these myths, and shows that the voyage was in fact meticulously planned - reflecting its importance to Britain's imperial and commercial ambitions. In his examination of the ships, passengers and preparation, Frost reveals the hopes and schemes of those who engineered the voyage, and the experiences of those who made it.
The culmination of thirty-five years' study of previously neglected archives, Botany Bay and the First Fleet offers new and surprising insights into how Australia came to be.
'Fascinating and compelling' -The Weekend Australian
'An exhilarating read. Frost ... is a master of the concise overview, leavened with wonderfully chosen, vivid examples ... Iconoclastic and refreshing.' -The Sydney Morning Herald
'Highly readable, Frost's work will be enjoyed by anyone with an interest in early Australia.' -The Sunday Herald Sun

Not a bad oil filter wrench, actually!
Lots of hit or miss reviews here, but for me, it fits like a glove and easily allows me to apply the 25-26 Nm of torque needed to open or close my BMW oil filter cover (2020 M4 but most BMWs use the same type of filter cover).
It does get on there pretty tight and might be hard to remove. Solutions:
- wait for the engine to cool down a bit, and it will come right off
- use a pick tool to loosen it

Great value and Perfect Fit
This little oil filter wrench fit my BMW M340i perfectly and made the job a breeze. It locked onto the cap snugly, with no slipping or wobbling, and let me remove and reinstall with confidence. The material feels sturdy for the price and if you use the proper torque instead of cranking down on the housing, it should last a long time.
Highly recommend for DIY oil changes.

Perfect on 1999 Volvo v90 XC AWD
I had looked everywhere for an oil filter wrench that would fit the cartridge filter on this1999 Volvo v90 XC AWD. Nothing local worked and then there was the issue where the recommended filter wrench slipped.
When I was ordering the 86.6mm wrench, I looked at the pictures and noticed it said if I had a specific type of marking on the housing then I would need this 86.4mm wrench instead.
Thanks to that bit of info I can now replace the filter.
Works 100% like a charm and filter was easy to remove with a standard ratchet.
Wrench seems well made and the price was perfect, especially compared to some of the others that are $35+.
Very satisfied with this purchase.
