The Mad Bomberg (novel)


The Mad Bomberg is a 1923 novel by the German writer Josef Winckler. It is loosely based on the legendary exploits of a real-life aristocrat Gisbert von Romberg. The novel has been adapted into films on two occasions. The first was a 1932 film The Mad Bomberg directed by Georg Asagaroff. The second The Mad Bomberg was a vehicle for the actor Hans Albers, which attempted to recreate the success of his 1943 film Münchhausen.
