In my opinion i would want to travel with the people from Jamestown. John Smith is a reasonable man whom those who work may eat those who don 't work would starve. And die if they did not want to work they can not eat. Also a main source of making money for him was growing tobacco in Virginia anyone can have lots of money by growing tobacco on rich Virginia soil. People in this town are basically on their own to survive and work for what they want. Although yes we was a braggart he was also i great a leader. Men were also the first people to be a big part of Jamestown, but i would also have people who would care for me such as
Captain John Smith was the leader of Jamestown leading a group of men to make money eventually off of tobacco. William Bradford was the leader of Plymouth and lead a group of families into the new world for religious reasons. While Smith was being boastful Bradford was more of a humble man. They both had some similar things in common. One of the similarities was going through the experience of the starving times.
Have you ever wondered,how Jamestown and Plymouth are related? Or perhaps how they differ; the same? Well Jamestown and Plymouth were both located in England. They come from the same area, but had its differences. They weren't exactly alike to say, but weren't all that different either.
When looking at “Mourt’s Relation” and On Plymouth Plantation, the reader sees William Bradford’s perspective on the New World and the Native Americans that inhabited it. In 1622, when Bradford helped write “Mourt’s Relation,” he was encouraging people to join him and his group of Puritans to settle in the New World. Therefore, he describes it as “so goodly a land” and the harbor as one “wherein a thousand sail of ships may safely ride” (Bradford, Winslow 1). This is much different from his later writing in 1630 where he describes the New World as “a hideous and desolate wilderness, full of wild beasts and wild men” (Bradford 1) Furthermore, this change Bradford’s account is because of the change of audience.
Being the first two well-known places in which the English would set out to colonize in 1607 and 1620, Jamestown, Virginia and Plymouth, Massachusetts hold very separate set of beliefs, standards, and outlooks on life then and the future to come. While paving the way for things such as slavery, taxes, ownership of land, inclusion of women, tobacco and government assemblies, John Smith and the people of Jamestown became a classical foundation for new life and economic growth for the new world that is, the United States. On the other hand, William Bradford and his people began to realize the intentions of the Church of England were unholy and had strayed away from God’s teachings from the Bible. With this in mind, the Pilgrims set on a voyage to the new world to seek religious freedom. As we know it, the Pilgrims sought for peace and a new way of living that was fair, just and free from religious corruptions.

Description The Jamestown[1] settlement in the Colony of Virginia was the first permanent English settlement in the Americas. William Kelso says Jamestown "is where the British Empire began ... this was the first colony in the British Empire."[2 ] Established by the Virginia Company of London as "James Fort" on May 4, 1607 (O.S., May 14, 1607 N.S.),[3] and considered permanent after brief abandonment in 1610, it followed several earlier failed attempts, including the Lost Colony of Roanoke. Jamestown served as the capital of the colony for 83 years, from 1616 until 1699.
Jamestown and Plymouth were the first English colonies in America. Both settlements faced harsh conditions which included weather, starvation and disease. In addition, both colonies struggled in creating a stable society, economy and government. The location of these two colonies was also a determining factor in their survival. Both colonists settled in modern day America for different reasons but were driven by the same ambitions for a new life that would determine how long the colony would last.
Lastly, the most important reason of all is the fact that it was the first permanent settlement in America. A great leader always has a story behind his name, before and while in leadership. Captain John Smith, one of Jamestown’s first leader, had an interesting origin and way of being a leader that I would have enjoyed seeing first hand. His relation with Jamestown began when he traveled to the new world, involved with Virginia Company of London’s plan to colonize
Life in Colonial America was different for all those involved, which were the settlers of Jamestown, Plymouth, and Massachusetts Bay colony.. Jamestown, Plymouth, and Massachusetts Bay had similarities and differences. They each had their own unique leaders, form of government, economics, and ways of life, although all the settlers in these colonies had a deep dependence on God. Jamestown was the first permanent settlement in North America, founded in 1607.
The British colonies in the Chesapeake region and those of the New England region were both similar yet different in certain ways. One because both the colonist that settled there were looking for new opportunities. However, it was mostly second son aristocrats, which means the first born usually inherits the better half of the father’s riches. Their lives in England had either been mistreated or they were unable to flourish economically. Regardless of whether they were searching the land for expansive homesteads, religious freedom, or exchanging and merchant opportunities, the colonist in both regions were searching for another land in the New World.
Beginning a life in the New World was a difficult and extended process. Many colonists made attempts to settle here, which failed for different reasons. There are two colonies that beat the odds and overcame their challenges. These colonies were called Jamestown and Plymouth. By using different methods and skills, they created new land for the people of Europe.

The arrival of the first Europeans in the Americas is dramatically captured through the many writers who attempted to communicate what they saw, experienced and felt. What is more, the very purposes of their treacherous travel and colonization are clearly seen in their writings; whether it is poetry, history or sermons. Of the many literary pieces available today, William Bradford and John Winthrop’s writings, even though vary because the first is a historical account and the second is a sermon, stand out as presenting a clear trust in God, the rules that would govern them and the reason they have arrived in the Americas. First of all, William Bradford provides an in-depth look into the first moment when the Puritans arrived in the Americas. In fact, he chronicles the hardships they face on their way to Plymouth, yet he includes God’s provision every step of the way.
They both left their country for their religious freedom and came to the New World. Both the Puritans and Pilgrims made promises to one another in a written doctrine to do what they felt was for the betterment of one another in their society which is shown in both of their covenants the Mayflower Compact and the Arbella Covenant. The Mayflower Compact and The Arbella Covenant are what the laws of today are shaped by and the remnants of it live in today’s Constitution. John Winthrop and William Braford are the writers of what shaped American history into what it is today.
