Reviews
"Extraordinary.... Deranged, hyperbolic and as true a work as I have read in a very long time... Barrett Brown's looping, musical sentences are flirtations, bending reason toward satire, hovering always on the fine edge between absurdity and profundity." --Kerry Howley, The New York Times Book Review "A lively prison memoir from the cyber age." -- Kirkus Review (starred review) "Brown's captivating prose mixes comic grandiloquence with Hunter S. Thompsonesque debauchery." -- Publishers Weekly "A masterful foray into the darkest recesses of media, intel, and disinfo that somehow manages to be as hilarious as it is frightening. It's plain to see why such lengths have been taken to silence the author. Barrett Brown is our Hunter S. Thompson." --Frankie Boyle, author of A Short History of the Apocalypse and My Shit Life So Far "Funny, infuriating, and brilliant, My Glorious Defeats is a must-read for anybody who cares about how our country really operates, why so many Americans consider Washington and everything that comes out of it to be a 'swamp,' and what we can do about it. You don't have to like Barrett Brown's politics (I do), but you sure have to respect his guts. He doesn't pull any punches." --John Kiriakou, author of Doing Time Like a Spy: How the CIA Taught Me to Survive and Thrive in Prison and The Reluctant Spy: My Secret Life in the CIA's War on Terror, "Extraordinary....

Synopsis
Part memoir, part manifesto, My Glorious Defeats is a bold and irreverent roaring indictment of the increasingly powerful and increasingly dangerous cyber-industrial complex that America has become from a National Magazine Award-winning journalist., Barrett Brown went to prison for four years for leaking intelligence documents. He was released to Trump's America. My Glorious Defeats is his story. After a series of escapades both online and off that brought him in and out of 4chan forums, the halls of power, heroin, and federal prison, Barrett Brown is a free man. Brown was arrested for his part in an attempt to catalog, interpret, and disseminate top-secret documents exposed in a security lapse by the intelligence contractor Stratfor in 2011. An influential journalist and active in the hacktivist collective Anonymous, Brown recounts exploits from a life shaped by an often self-destructive drive to speak truth to power. With inimitable wit and style, palpable anger and conviction, Brown exposes the incompetence and injustices that plague media and politics, reflects on the successes and failures of the transparency movement, and shows the way forward in harnessing digital communication tools for collective action. But My Glorious Defeats is more than just the tale of the clever and hilarious Brown; it's also a rigorously researched dissection of our decaying institutions, and of human nature itself. As Brown makes clear, institutions are made of people--people with personal ambitions and personal vices--and it is people, just like him, just like us, who hold power. As optimistic as it is heartbreaking, My Glorious Defeats is an entertaining and illuminating manual for insurgency in the information age. Bold and combative, irreverent and erudite, My Glorious Defeats is both memoir and manifesto--a roaring indictment of the increasingly powerful and increasingly dangerous cyber-industrial complex., Barrett Brown--journalist, hacktivist, troublemaker, face of Anonymous, legend in his own mind--went to prison for four years for leaking intelligence documents. He was released to Trump's America. This is his story. After four years in prison for obstruction of justice, accessory after the fact, and threatening a federal officer, Barrett Brown is a free man. Bringing together a unique blend of journalism, activism, and personal hubris in My Glorious Defeats , Brown recounts tales of his connection to the hacktivist group Anonymous, of his volatile relationship with the world's most notorious hackers, of the drugs he took and stories he wrote, and of his time in prison. He describes his arrest for threatening an FBI agent in a YouTube video and subsequent indictment on twelve federal charges related to the 2011 hack of private intelligence contractor Stratfor. And he guides us with hilarious and unapologetic contempt through his charges, trial, and sentencing. But his story doesn't end with a heavy-handed miscarriage of justice. From prison, Barrett wrote an award-winning column about life behind bars and his compulsion to speak truth to power. Now, he tells us how he's addressing the corrosion of the rule of law and the diminished role of the media under the rule of a demagogue. He has a viable, active plan to harness the collective power of modern tools of communication to promote the public good. Bold and combative, part Hunter S. Thompson, part Antonio Gramsci (not really), My Glorious Defeats is part memoir, part manifesto--a roaring indictment of the increasingly powerful and increasingly dangerous cyber-industrial complex., Barrett Brown went to prison for four years for leaking intelligence documents. He was released to Trump's America. This is his story. After a series of escapades both online and off that brought him in and out of 4chan forums, the halls of power, heroin addiction, and federal prison, Barrett Brown is a free man. He was arrested for his part in an attempt to catalog, interpret, and disseminate top-secret documents exposed in a security lapse by the intelligence contractor Stratfor in 2011. An influential journalist who is also active in the hacktivist collective Anonymous, Brown recounts exploits from a life shaped by an often self-destructive drive to speak truth to power.

As Brown makes clear, institutions are made of people--people with personal ambitions and personal vices--and it is people, just like him, just like us, who hold power.
