Neill W. Macaulay, Jr. PhD (April 10, 1935 in South Carolina - October 28, 2007 in Micanopy, Florida) was a writer, professor and a former lieutenant in Fidel Castro's 26th of July Movement Army. Prof. Macaulay was a graduate of the University of Texas and the Citadel and was a Korean War era veteran. After his army service, Macaulay joined the Cuban Revolution to overthrow Fulgencio Batista 〔http://www2.fiu.edu/~fcf/yanquifidelistas.html〕 Afterwards he became highly disillusioned with the Castro regime and departed Cuba. Macaulay then earned a doctorate from the University of Texas and began teaching at the University of Florida (1964-1986) where he became known as an expert in Latin American history. He retired from teaching in 1986. Macaulay authored the ''The Sandino Affair'' (1967), ''A Rebel in Cuba'' (1970), ''The Prestes Column'' (1974) and ''Dom Pedro: the struggle for liberty in Brazil and Portugal, 1798–1834'' (1986). . He returned to Cuba in 1991, after being repeatedly denied entry by the Castro government. He later made various other trips as an academic. Macaulay's experiences in Cuba helped inspire two documentaries ''Cuba: A Lifetime of Passion'' (2007) and ''Patria o Muerte'' (still in production). ==References== * ''U.S. Born Cuba Rebel Repudiated Castro'', The Miami Herald, November 2, 2007, Page 5B * (The Gainesville Sun obituary ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Neill W.
