German mercenaries in the late 2nd century - Tony Riches - 08-21-2011

Morning all,

I have a request for information, if you'll indulge me. Can anyone please point me at a good source of information with regard to German mercenaries/foederati operating during and after the Marcomannic wars. I'm interested in almost any aspect of such a unit - recruitment, equipment, organisation, motivation (that one's pretty easy, I guess) and so on.

I'm happy to buy books, so this doesn't just have to be 'go the following website' advice.

Best regards and thanks in advance to anyone that can help on this subject.

Tony.
