From the summer of 1942 until the end of 1943 Ernest Hemingway patrolled the Gulf Stream and Cuba's north shore in his fishing boat, Pilar. While little attention has been paid to these patrols, they were a useful military contribution as well as a central event around which important historical, literary and biographical themes revolve.
