Best Answer

Smith was never a colonial governor. He came to Jamestown on the second ship and was in the colony a short time before he had to return to England to seek medical treatment for burns. His part in history and in Jamestown has been overstated and hyped. He actually, began his " salesmanship" of his part in history by publishing a book about his adventures. Much of what he wrote is not true and overstated concerning his part in various events.
