Thanks, I'll definitely look into that. I've heard though that Tacitus' information may be a little outdated or biased, and therefore not fully correct.

Tacitus will not give you an accurate account of the Germanic tribes.
I listen to podcasts on Germanic history, and honestly, the best ones I've found focus on the German language instead of the geographic region. The evolution and spread of the language will give you a better understanding of how these tribes migrated across Europe.
