ISBN10: 1841761524, ISBN13: 9781841761527, [publisher: Osprey Publishing Limited, London] Softcover First Edition 1996. 64pp. B&W and colour images, maps and charts. "The Germanic warrior was perhaps the most important player in the process of evolution from classical to feudal society. By no means a united people, a shared language root was perhaps all that these diverse tribes had in common. Even so, it is unlikely that a Frank living by the Rhine could have been understood by a Goth on the Dniester. This volume offers an overview of the motivations, lifestyles and evolution of these people, looking at how individual soldiers lived and fought. It focuses particularly on the men who made up the retinues of the Germanic warlords who carved kingdoms out of the carcass of the West Roman Empire." Book is in very good condition with no inscriptions.
