Can anyone recommend novels and short stories about the guys like William Walker who went into South and Central America in the 19th century and tried to take over countries?

The Man Who Would Be King might be the sort of thing you're looking for.

A couple of the books in the Aubrey Maturin series (The wine-dark sea, Blue at the mizzen) by Patrick O'Brian are about British naval involvement in the Chilean war of independence.
