約翰‧史密斯成為詹姆斯敦的領導人,1608910

印第安公主寶卡荷塔斯真的救了他的命嗎?他真的被俘且賣到土耳其,因為一個土耳其女人的愛而逃脫?約翰史密斯確實是一位值得稱許的領導者、探險家、冒險者、作家、以及地圖繪製員,他於1608910日,擔任了詹姆斯敦這處殖民地的領導角色,從大西洋海岸到維吉尼亞,這是英國於1607年在北美的第一個殖民地。起初,史密斯並沒有考慮到組織政權。


Did the Indian princess Pocahontas really save his life? Was he really captured and sold into slavery in Turkey, escaping with the love of a Turkish woman? John Smith may have been the first romantic of America; he certainly became an appreciated leader. Explorer, adventurer, writer, and cartographer, Smith assumed a leadership role at the Jamestown settlement on September 10, 1608. On the Atlantic coast of present-day Virginia, Jamestown was the first British settlement in North America, founded in 1607. At first, Smith wasn't even considered for the government.
