Read the passage below from Captain John Smith's personal account of his experience in America. As you read, think about how he presents himself in this passage. When this news reached Jamestown, much was their sorrow for his loss, few having expected him to be captured. For six or seven weeks those Barbarians kept him prisoner, and many strange triumphs conjurations they made of him. He behaved among them in a way that not only diverted them from surprising the Fort, but also procured his own liberty, and made himself and his company so respected among them, that those savages admired him more than their own gods.
