Today is the 100th anniversary of the Battle of Coronel, which led to the subsequent Battle of the Falklands on December 8, 2014.
Hew Strachan's "The First World War Vol 1: To Arms" has a chapter on (War in the Pacific) which covers Coronel and the Battle of the Falklands.
Robert K. Massie's "Castles of Steel" also covers both von Spee's and Craddock's voyages, Coronel, and the Battle of the Falklands.
Richard Hough's "The Great War At Sea" also covers the battles.
The only fiction that comes to mind is C.S. Forester's "Brown On Resolution", which may have a tie-in to the hunt for S.M.S. Dresden after the Battle of the Falklands.
