Captain John Smith and Governor William Bradford were two influential men in the New World during the early 1600s.John Smith and William Bradford comparison
John Smith and William Bradford were two extremely different people who both established colonies in the new world. However, both men were similar in certain aspects.
They were similar in their faith, biases, and position. They were different in their personality, treatment of others, and purpose.
John Smith Wrote of only good things about the new world returned many times to england.
One thing that Smith and Bradford had in common was their unyielding faith. Bradford was a puritan; his entire purpose for coming to the Americas was religious. He wrote “and the wind shrinking upon them withal, they resolved to bear up again for the cape and thought themselves happy to get out of those dangers before night overtook them, as by God’s providence they did.” Throughout his perilous journey to the new world, whenever something bad happened it was a reasonless and unmotivated, but any good fortune was caused by God’s divinity.
Smith to a lesser extent, was the same way. He announced his deity as “God, the patron of all good endeavors”
