The Germany and the Agricola of Tacitus combines two short historical works by the Roman historian. The first describes the lands, customs, and tribes of the Germanic peoples; the second is a biography of Tacitus's father-in-law Agricola, governor of Britain. They offer a vivid glimpse into the Roman frontier and are valued for their concise style.
