Máximo Gómez
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. Read more on Wikipedia
