"I only read "The Germania." It is good to know that the ancient Germans didn't back down on a good fight (especially after some Alcohol). If only the modern day German would experience atavism and regain what they have lost!
Tactius also thought the Germans to be of "pure blood." Nice."
"These works, by an ancient Roman historian, tell the story of the historian's father-in-law's adventures as the Roman governor of Britain. They also tell the story of Britain and Germany in ancient times. I was struck by how modern many of the author's comments were about societies."
