History of the Lombards, by Paul the Deacon (c. 720-c. 799), is
among the most important and oldest accounts of the Germanic
nation. The book preserves many ancient myths and popular
traditions and draws from sources that are now lost. The history
traces the changing fortunes of the Lombards, the last of the
migratory Germanic peoples to enter the western part of the old
Roman Empire, from their first appearance in the West in the sixth
century to the middle of the eighth century. The popularity of Paul
the Deacon's book has endured over the centuries and, although
there have been numerous translations and editions, this remains
the only one in English.
