.....Soneone should do a good historical fictive account of the life of Heros Von Borche- a professional soldier from Germany, who came to fight for The Confederacy during The War Between The States; for idealogical reasons.

.....He wrote a two volume account of his adventures. Though I've often seen his book referenced, I've never been able to find a copy to read. At any rate, the truth is fairly melodramatic. With a good dose of pure fiction thrown in...

.....RVM45 :cool:
 
Your problem finding a copy could be in the spelling of his surname, RVM45. It's also spelt alternatively Von Borcke, and if you check under Heros Von Borcke, "Memoirs of the Confederate War for Independence" you should find copies of the book for sale- it's certainly listed on Amazon in a relatively recent edition, though it's not particularly cheap.
