Description
Descripcion en espanol
On September 3, 1930 the Dominican Republic was devastated by Hurrican 'San Zenon', it leveled the capital and most of the south coast, leaving thousands of deaths and millions of dollars in property damage. Whatever little infrastructure the country had was wiped out by the meteor in what was the biggest natural --or otherwise -- disaster in the history of the young nation. It happened just two week after soon-to-be-dictator Rafael Trujillo Molina ascended to power.
Trujillo's swift reaction, and quick reconstruction allowed him to consolidate his power, planting the seed for the longest, bloodiest dictatorship in the history of the Dominican Republic and Latin America.
Frank Moya Pons, one of the most prominent historians in the Dominican Republic, analyzes the facts and consequences of a hurricane that brought more devastation than that caused by the wind and rain.
