Sometimes when your telling a story and you stretch the truth it takes away the reliability of the story. This is why I agree that biased writings do take away from the meaning because once you stretch the truth how is everything else supposed to be relied on to be the truth . Some of the things that are stretched out or seemed just to make the story better or make something look better than it is.
In the Journal of John Smith there were many times where he put more of subjective perspectives than objective. There were a lot of Times when he made things More then what they really should have been. '' ''Each hour expecting the fury of the savages; when God, the patron of all good endeavors, in that desperate extremity so changed the hearts of the savages that they brought such plenty of their fruits and provision as no man wanted'' . This is an example of where John exaggerates the truth.
