Andres A. ("Tony") Ramos Mattei, (1941 – 11 February 1987) was a Puerto Rican sugar industry historian. He is considered the "undisputed authority" on the subject of Puerto Rico's sugar industry. (…) Ramos Mattei's intellectual passion revolved around the peculiar historical processes of his native Puerto Rican society where he wrote about its enduring and perplexing colonial drama. In this regard, he was most interested in the life and thought of Ramon Emeterio Betances, the Puerto Rican abolitionist, revolutionary, and "father of the Puerto Rican nation". Ramos' contributions in this field was almost as intense as his contributions to the history of the cane sugar industry.
