databases

-Here are a couple of articles I found on my college library database website. The first is the property of Great Neck Publishing and is a letter to John Smith from the Powhatan chief. The second is titled Captain John Smith and the Campaign for New England: A Study in Early Modern Identity and Promotion and is written by Woodward, Walter W.1 in March 2008

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IHBl-EuFoLY - Heres a video/podcast about Pocahontas and John Smith and how in certain movies she is portrayed as his love interest when in reality, this was far from truth or right. In fact, she was in love with another John you may know :)

An awesome blog!!!!

Websites

Here are a couple of websites I found on John that I think are interesting. They have a lot of things that you may not see covered within a school history book.

Just another neat one.... http://www.preservationvirginia.org/rediscovery/page.php?page_id=25

Neat photo

Found this photo on the internet and thought it was pretty cool. It is supposed to be portraying how Pocahontas saved John's life right as he was to be killed.

Captain John Smith

Hi everyone. My name is Whitney and I created this blog for a history class I am currently enrolled in. I chose for it to be about John Smith because I find his life very interesting. He's always been one of my favorite historical figures. I look forward to researching him and learning new things that I do no yet know and hope you may learn something as well :)
