There are many stories from the past that are said to contain accurate depictions of what the New World truly looked like and what it had to offer, none of which scratched the surface of exploration compared to those of Christopher Columbus and Captain John Smith. These two “stories” are actually said to be direct entries from the journals of those two famous explorers in times of their many voyages and discoveries. Therefore, the depiction of the New World by Christopher Columbus and that of Captain John Smith in The General History are known to contain some of the most accurate information. However, if I were to compare and contrast the two entries, there would be a noticeable difference between the writings of Columbus and Smith. So which of these to sources do I believe to be more reliable?
