THE BRITISH GO ON COLONIZING AMERICA* The first English colony that succeeded in surviving in spite of the hard conditions of life in the New World was named Jamestown in honour of King James the First who took over as the King of England after Queen Elizabeth died in 1603. The Jamestown expedition was financed by a group of rich London investors who had formed a joint stock company called the Virginia Company. The first Jamestown settlers were recruited by the Virginia Company and the Company's directors first of all wanted them to find gold in America and bring them a quick profit on their investment. It would only be fair to say that some of the recruits were also thinking of gold more than of anything else. As travellers and explorers they were very inexperienced and made many serious mistakes. They had chosen a swampy site for their settlement and did not think in good time of growing enough food to feed themselves. They failed to establish good relations with the natives and were permanently at war with them. As a result they began to die of starvation, diseases and in wars with the Indians.
Part 2
By that time a young settler named John Rolfe had discovered a new way of making tobacco leaves milder, and the export of this new kind of tobacco began to bring good money, which actually saved Virginia. Most of the settlers recruited by Virginia to work on tobacco plantations were poor people from England who had promised to work for the employer for an agreed period of time in exchange for food and clothes. If by the end of that period the worker was lucky enough to remain alive, he became free to work for himself. But soon another kind of labour force, that practically did not cost anything at all, appeared in Virginia.
