Overview

This is a biography of Henry M. Reeve, a brave young American, willing to fight for the independence of Cuba until his last breath. In 1869, being a 19-year-old office clerk in New York whose military experience was only as a drummer, he left his job to join the Cuban Liberation Army. In a short time, he became a formidable natural soldier in the Cuban fields. From being an inexperienced horse rider, he became the chief of the best cavalry in the army. He escalated, rank by rank, from the position of a private soldier to the one of brigadier general in only four years. Being a 23-year-old brigadier general, with his right leg disabled due to a serious wound, he fought riding his horse with an apparatus in his leg, leading his men into combat.
