关于作者
Robert H. Patton's most recent novel, Cajun Waltz, received the 2017 Connecticut Book of the Year Award for fiction from Connecticut Humanities. A family saga set in southwest Louisiana in the first half of the 20th Century, the novel is available from Thomas Dunne Books (St. Martin's Press).
His previous book, Hell Before Breakfast, a non-fiction history of American newsmen-adventurers in 19th Century Europe and Central Asia, was published by Pantheon in 2014 and is available in paperback from Vintage.
Patton's current project is a series of historical novels centered around the world of colonial privateering chronicled in his acclaimed history, Patriot Pirates. The series features naval warfare, international intrigue, and the colorful money-madness of privateering during the French and Indian War, the American Revolution, and the War of 1812. Look for Book One of Jackals & Foxes from Thomas Dunne next year.
