CAPT. JOHN SMITH (PT 1) THE REAL STORY OF JAMESTOWN

An Account of the Early Settlement of Virginia and of the Adventures of Capt. John Smith by Edward and Lillie Eggleston

Chapter I: Early Explorers and Gold Seekers- England's futile search for Gold from Labrador to North Carolina

Overall: This 1879 account of the early settlement of Virginia written by Edward and Lillie Eggleston provides a true account of England's madcap and often foolish hunt for gold, the brutality offered by both Indian and white in Virginia, the early jealousy and mistrust showed to Capt. Smith on the voyage across, and how he saved the colony by finally wrestling leadership from men whose only concern was loading the ships with mud which they were wrongly convinced contained gold.
