So what's the story on Antonio Grajales?

[ironmike19]

Lt. General Antonio de la Caridad Maceo y Grajales (June 14, 1845—December 7, 1896) was second-in-command of the Cuban Army of Independence (Ejercito Libertador or Ejercito Mambi).

Given the sobriquet of the "Bronze Titan" ("El Titan de Bronce") by Cubans even when he was alive - a reference to his skin coloration, stature and status respectively - and by Spaniards during his life of the "Greater Lion" ("El Leon mayor"), Maceo was one of the outstanding guerrilla leaders in 19th century Latin America, easily comparable to José Antonio Páez of Venezuela in military skills, if not comparable in political vision and virtue, much greater in Antonio Maceo.

That is rather interesting Hatuey. Are you a relative of his or did you study him? I am just curious as to how you found out all this information. Let me know if you get a chance brother.
