"10 Minutos de Gloria" is a historical novel that involved a battle in a town in the east of the Dominican Republic, where the Creoles confronted the French until they were overthrown, and in this way the sovereignty of Spain was restored on the island. The central theme of the novel is the fight and the adventures that General Juan Sánchez RamÃrez had to go through against French rule in the eastern part of the island of Santo Domingo. The general was in favor of restoring the sovereignty of Spain on the island. This situation resulted in many Dominican families leaving the island for Puerto Rico, Cuba, and Venezuela. This migratory process increased when the soldiers commanded by Toussaint Louverture, a former slave turned general of the French Republic, entered Santo Domingo in 1801, almost without resistance, to take possession of the territory that Spain had ceded to France.
