Máximo Gómez Autographs

Máximo Gómez y Báez (November 18, 1836 – June 17, 1905) was a Dominican-Cuban general. After first getting military experience while fighting for his motherland in the Dominican War of Independence, he later fought against his former compatriots alongside Spanish forces in the Dominican Restoration War. Following defeat in the latter conflict, he sought political refuge in Cuba, where he led Cuban rebels in both the Ten Years' War and the Cuban War of Independence from 1868 to 1898. He was known for his controversial scorched earth tactics, which entailed dynamiting passenger trains and torching the Spanish loyalist properties and sugar plantations. By the time the Spanish–American War broke out in April 1898, he refused to join forces with the Spanish in fighting off the United States. Despite his change of loyalty to the Spanish during his early years, he is still considered a war hero in both his native Dominican Republic and in Cuba.
Gómez was born on November 18, 1836 in the town of Baní, in what is now the province of Peravia in the Dominican Republic (then under Haitian occupation).
During his teenage years, he joined in the battles against the frequent Haitian incursions of Faustin Soulouque in the 1850s, during the Dominican War of Independence. After seeing the Dominican general Pedro Florentino burn his hometown of Baní to the ground on his 27th birthday, he decided to fight alongside the Spanish forces in the Dominican Restoration War until its end, a decision he would eventually admit to regretting. He would later earn a promotion from sergeant to commander after achieving victory over the aforementioned Florentino in a battle.
