Captain John Smith's first writings about Jamestown took the form of letters sent to England on a supply ship along with an early map. This account was published as A True Relation of Such Occurrences and Accidents of Noate As Hath Happened in Virginia. This letter accounted for the period between December, 1606 and June 2, 1608, before Smith embarked on his voyages.

Historians and archaeologists generally agree that most of what Smith wrote is accurate and truthful to the best of his knowledge. His depictions of places, locations of Indian towns, and accounts of voyages and discoveries have largely been confirmed by other sources, including contemporary writings and later archaeological investigations.

Like other European explorers of his era, however, Smith promoted himself aggressively, probably exaggerating his adventures and enhancing his public image. Later editions of his books contain different versions of some stories, thereby arousing suspicion. His texts are useful, therefore, as a glimpse into the mindset of a European explorer in the early 1600s. They are not only a document of the Chesapeake Bay, but also of the wider context of European colonialism, religion, politics, and more.

It will never be known how accurate Smith's writings are. However, they had a significant effect on the course of American history, fostering interest in the Chesapeake region and triggering further exploration and settlement. This in turn impacted American Indian communities, who were displaced by English colonization.

Before reflecting on these texts, consider the startling words written by a Manichaean scribe 1700 years ago as he labored to copy, preserve, and propagate the writings that have now come to your hands:

This article illustrates three examples supporting the modern value of early writings in dentistry and medicine. First, by studying cases described in works published long before the era of genetic science, we are able to develop new hypotheses about familial conditions and their genetic roots. Tooth transposition is presented as an example. Second, old writings may lead us to valuable historical insights and perspectives in medicine that can be revealed only in retrospective analysis. An example of this kind of historical analysis uncovers why dentistry became unnaturally separated from mainstream medicine in the 19th century. Third, early writings become keys to unlocking forgotten knowledge that enriches our understanding of historically significant people and events. The discovery of Norman Kingsley's long forgotten pyrographic paintings after Rembrandt portraits is used as an example. Libraries, the traditional custodians of these valued old texts, must continue to be supported, and not undermined by the paperless digital revolution.
