John Smith è stato un militare, marinaio e scrittore britannico. È ricordato per il suo ruolo di presidente della colonia della Virginia nel 1609, primo insediamento inglese nell'America settentrionale sotto Giacomo I d'Inghilterra con capitale Jamestown, e per la breve collaborazione avuta con la nativa americana Pocahontas durante il conflitto con la Confederazione Powhatan. Nel 1608 pubblicò A True Relation of Such Occurrences and Accidents of Noate as Hath Hapned in Virginia [sic], primo libro in inglese scritto in America. Guidò numerose esplorazioni lungo i fiumi della Virginia e le coste della Baia di Chesapeake.
