Captain John Smith was a great political and historical figure in United States
             History. He is always going to be remembered in our American History as a great and
             honest leader. He went through many trials and tribulations and came out of it a very

             slave, the time he was captured in Powhatans camp, and when Smith was in England how

             In other words, he exaggerated a lot. Therefore sometimes when he told a story and then
             a year later told the same story with a different happening or ending, it was hard to tell if
             Smith was to believe. For example, Smith said in one of his writings that in Powhatans
             camp he was fed enough venison for ten men. After twelve years has yet passed, Smith
             tells that we was fed enough venison for twenty men. In the seventeenth century, details
             like that explained about how the veni...
