Hello

[Ingemar Nordgren]

Hi David and welcome!

The Goths are disputed in many ways and so is their history. I have 
myself disputed in the matter and my dissertation is published in 
bookform as "The Well Spring of the Goths". It is a bit unortodox when 
it concerns what makes them Gothic, where I mean earlier researcher got 
it wrong, but otherwise it tells the conventional story in great. I 
have a literature index where you might find a lot of literature  about 
the Goths. You can test read it at Google library. The most well known 
classical books internationally are Herwig Wolfram "The Goths" and 
Peter Heather "The Goths". An interesting new angle is also Anders 
Kaliff "Gothic Connections".

Best
Ingemar
