Sources on Casto Mendez Nunez

English-language material on Casto Mendez Nunez is limited, making broader Latin American naval histories useful starting points.

Question

What books beyond his autobiography cover Spanish admiral Casto Mendez Nunez?

Short answer

The tentative leads are Robert Scheina's Latin American naval history and an incompletely identified work associated with Jose Ramon.

Notes

Robert Scheina's naval history of Latin America covering 1810-1987 is suggested as a possible source on Casto Mendez Nunez. Both the recollection of an English translation and the coverage of the admiral are tentative. A later book associated with Jose Ramon is also recalled, but its title and full author identification are not supplied. These leads come from older teaching notes and would need bibliographic checking.
