Some in our chat last night professed reading Peter S. Wells, The Barbarians Speak: How the Conquered Peoples Shaped Roman Europe – which together with Tacitus‘ Germania is our next assigment – a bit of a challenge.
Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2000.02.30 may explain why. I personally think the review is a bit over-critical, I find the book quite informative on the whole, even though it has to be read with a grain of salt.
Another print edition of Tacitus pointed out to me is Agricola and Germany (Oxford World's Classics) by Tacitus and Anthony Birley.
Observe the identical book cover images!
Online: Germania
