Hi All! I've got one too! Not an ebook (actually I don't know, I read it as a p-book 15 years ago).

It's the story of a half Japanese, half American boy, who joins the Japanese navy. He's in love with a British lady, but she leaves him because he sleeps with a geisha. Japan starts a war against China and he's an artillery officer. Then there is also a war against Russia and he's a captain. In the meantime, his geisha commits suicide, helped by his brother, whom she was also seeing. He also gets married with a Russian princess and has a son. At the end of the book, he makes peace with the British lady and they marry.

Ciao & thanks in advance!
