John Smith and William Bradford were two important people who led to the settlement in America. They were fine leaders who made survival possible on this new land. They created relationships with the natives and won and lost some with their own men.
Both of these men were amazing leaders. They led their men across the ocean to settle on lands that were never previously settled by Europeans. They had all of their crew adapt to the new land and form relationships with the natives. If it was not for these two men's great leadership skills, their crews would have died and America would not be the same.
Without the decisions made by Smith and Bradford, nobody would have survived in the New World. They took control and found food and shelter. They also made sure all their sick were taken care of when nobody really wanted to do this job. Smith and Bradford made it possible to make a small colony on a land they have never seen. If they never made the decisions they did, European settlement in America could be very different.
These men also met the natives and observed how they lived. At first, neither of them got along with the natives. Tensions soon abated and they learned to work together. The natives showed Smith and Bradford a way to live and adapt to the land. The natives saved Smith and Bradford's lives and forever changed the land of America.
Both John Smith and William Bradford were major people in the event of settling America. They made important decisions to make survival possible. They led their crews to adapt in America. Also, they made friends with the natives, which played a big part in their survival. If it was not for these fine men, many things may be different, including life in America today.
