Podcast
I had a rough time finding a podcast to fit with my blog. I was unsure of what a podcast was but came up with this taping of a book written about The Adventures of Captain John Smith.
http://librivox.org/this-country-of-ours-part-2-by-h-e-marshall/
The book is titled This Country of Ours Part 2 by H. E. Marshall. The Adventures of Captain John Smith are included in chapter 13 of this book. There are a few chapters that follow chapter 13 also including some of his experiences.
I found this podcast by going to Google, and typing "podcast search" into the search engine. It brought me to a page with a podcast search engine and I typed Captain John Smith into the search engine, and this link popped up.

Another Blog
http://www.english.usd.ac.id/dewi/
I have chosen this Blog because is covers some great details concerning John Smith, his travels and his publishings. I used Googleblogsearch to find this blog, it took awhile and some very detailing words in the search engine before this and two others popped up.
This blog is posted by an instructor at a college and she uses it to give her students access to the information in her course. This blog is filled with a lot of information but solely focuses on the travels of the Europeans to the New World.

A Publicist
John Smith not only colonized Virginia, but he also published many books about his journeys through life. He created many maps laying out all his adventures and perservered to settle Jamestown. He published 10 books, all of which describe different journeys and explorations he encountered. He was an well respe ted English soldier, fantastic explorer and known author. How exciting to be this accomplished back in the 1600's!
