Purchase of this book includes free trial access to www.million-books.com where you can read more than a million books for free. This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: . CHAPTER II. Early History of the German Tribes ? This Name first Applied by Julius Caesar ?Their Authentic History commences with the Christian Era ? Early Habits and Stature ? Confederation of Tribes ? Severe Laws of Conversion to Christianity ? The Reformation ? Luther and Dr. Eck ? Lower Palatinate of the Rhine ? Religious Wars ? Frederick Prince Palatine ? Theidelburgh Library ? The Palatinate Devastated ? Continental Wars of Europe ? Manheim ? Characteristics of these People ? A Legend.

It can not be very remarkable that the original collective name of a people inhabiting a particular district of country, so much divided int...… (meer)
