Small stain inside front flyleaf, small tears to DJ repaired with tape, small DJ piece missing. Michael Maclear (1929 - December 25, 2018) was an award-winning Anglo-Canadian journalist, filmmaker, and correspondent for various CBC programs and for CTV's W5. As a foreign correspondent for CBC and the CTV Television Network, he traveled to more than 80 countries. Maclear made several wartime visits to North Vietnam for CBC and later for CTV, the first Western TV correspondent granted admission to the North. In 1963 he married Yoko Koide, a news researcher whose contacts with Nihon Denpa News and its Hanoi bureau made possible a series of exclusive reports. Yoko's contacts were key to obtaining Hanoi's military archives for the 13- hour television history "Vietnam: The 10,000 Day War" . He received many awards, including an ACTRA Award, Gemini Awards, and from Canadian Film and Television Producers Association. Derived from a Kirkus review: Maclear's documentary history of the Vietnam War is based on interviews and statements by participants, and taken from a TV series. Maclear, a Canadian journalist/observer, doesn't overlook either the North Vietnamese or the antiwar movement--and he doesn't pretend that he's neutral. He's aware of the irony of the Vietnam/Chinese war at the conclusion of America's intervention in Southeast Asia to check Chinese expansion, and American coziness with China and enmity toward Vietnam. But the most damning words come out from men like Alexander Haig, who thought that we could have made a success of the Laos invasion, or William Westmoreland, who still thinks the civilians lost the war. Westmoreland's assessment isn't shared by Eugene McCarthy. Eric Sevareid concurs with McCarthy. But the verdict is already clear--through the words of everyone from Melvin Laid to the grunts in the rice paddies.
