内容简介：
In this lively narrative history, Robert H. Patton, grandson
of the World War II battlefield legend, tells a sweeping tale of
courage, capitalism, naval warfare, and international political
intrigue set on the high seas during the American Revolution.
Patriot Pirates highlights the obscure but pivotal role
played by colonial privateers in defeating Britain in the American
Revolution. American privateering-essentially legalized
piracy-began with a ragtag squadron of New England schooners in
1775. It quickly erupted into a massive seaborne insurgency
involving thousands of money-mad patriots plundering Britain's
maritime trade throughout Atlantic. Patton's extensive research
brings to life the extraordinary adventures of privateers as they
hammered the British economy, infuriated the Royal Navy, and
humiliated the crown.

“Entertaining and enlightening. . . . [Patton] has dug deep into
Revolutionary War-era records and writes with verve.”–The
Washington Post Book World“The British had always accused us
of being pirates and thieves. Robert Patton’s fascinating account
of privateering during the American Revolution nicely proves their
point.”–Winston Groom“Wonderfully told.” –The Hartford
Courant“Intriguing. . . . Lively and instructive. . . .
Patriot Pirates is not ‘revisionist’ or ‘alternative’
history. What it offers is neglected history, the study of a
crucial theater of the Revolution that has been overlooked, perhaps
because it lacks the mythic cutouts we like to champion on the
Fourth of July.”–The Washington Times“Having, as an
Englishman, been brought up on Hornblower and Nelson, I was
fascinated to read Robert Patton’s Patriot Pirates and to
discover what I never knew about the American Hornblowers–the
privateers of the Revolutionary War and their extraordinary
adventures. For all those who love history and the sea, this is
soul-stirring stuff, as good as reading a Patrick O’Brian novel,
except that every word is true.”–Michael Korda, author of
Ulysses S. Grant and Ike“A fascinating account that
would make an exciting television series. . . . [Patton] has done
great work to bring this story to life.”–Proceedings
Magazine (U.S. Naval Institute)“Patton gives an absorbing
exhumation of an undersung subject that will be of particular
interest to Revolution buffs.”–Publishers Weekly“In this
deeply considered book, based on overlooked primary sources, Robert
H. Patton illuminates the raucous, illicit origins of our American
democracy. The privateers of the Revolution operated in a
twilit world of idealism and greed, launching the new nation
on the double edge that would thereafter define it.
Many familiar names–the Browns of Providence, the Cabots and
Derbys of Salem, the Binghams and Franklins of Philadelphia–appear
here in unfamiliar, less admirable ways. With neither rancor nor
illusions, Patriot Pirates reminds us again of the mystery
and unpredictability of true history.”–Stephen Fox, author of
Wolf of the Deep: Raphael Semmes and the Notorious Confederate
Raider CSS Alabama“A fascinating case study in free enterprise.
. . . Patton’s book is an eye-opener”–The Georgetown Record
(Massachusetts)“A well-written examination of an obscure aspect of
American military history.”–Booklist“Illuminating. . . . A
pleasing mixture of high-seas adventure and shrewd
analysis.”–Kirkus Reviews
