Description
–from Captain John Smith
Captain John Smith tells the real story at the back of the swashbuckling character who founded the Jamestown colony, wrote the first book in English in The usa, and cheated death time and again by a mere hairbreadth. Based on rich primary sources, including Smith’s own writings and newly came upon material, this enlightening book explores Smith’s early days, his forceful leadership at Jamestown that was once so critical to its survival, and his efforts upon his return to England to continue settlements in The usa. This unique volume also reveals the truth at the back of Smith’s relationship with Pocahontas, a tale that history has greatly distorted. Bringing to life heroic deeds and dramatic escapes in addition to moments of great suffering and hardship, Captain John Smith serves as a great testament to this important historical figure.
