He mapped the coast, named it New England, and spent the rest of his life trying to get somebody to fund a return. Smith's 1616 description is a sales document with a surveyor's accuracy: the fish, the timber, the harbours and the people, aimed at investors who would rather chase gold, from a man who knew perfectly well the money was in cod.
