He did NOT save Jamestown. He was only there a very few months and he lied about his contribution to the settlement in a book he wrote several years later. He also made up the story about Pocahontas and she died young so couldn't refute his story. The man who did save Jamestown was the husband of Pocahontas and gave tobacco seeds to the colony. That was John Rolfe.
He didn't save it and Pocahontas didn't save him. The story we know is not true. Actually the colonist landed in an area of 14,000 Native Americans and in the worse land in the area. Powhatan pretty much left them alone. I think he figured that they would die from the bad water and disease . He was fairly right. Within 6 months there were only 34 men left alive of the 104 who came. It wasn't until after his death that the brother of Powhatan attacked the colony. The story about Smith is also not true. He did NOT save Jamestown. He was only there a very few months and he lied about his contribution to the settlement in a book he wrote several years later. He also made up the story about Pocahontas and she died young so couldn't refute his story. The man who did save Jamestown was the husband of Pocahontas and gave tobacco seeds to the colony. That was John Rolfe.

Because he led Jamestown out of starvation and was saved by Pocohantas. He also had his hip blown apart by his own gunpowder.
John Smith was sent from England to help save (rebuild) the James Town Colony. He sent more men to work and because of this, John Smith made Jamestown the First Successful colony.
He didn’t say those words. He wrote in his book that he did, but he lied about his time in Jamestown. He didn’t know Pocahontas and she was a little girl. Nor did she save his life. He was a adventurer, and was out to promote himself as a important person.
the crop that saved jamestown by the way it was founded in 1607 it was tabaco!! john smith
