From Proto-Indo-European to Proto-Germanic - Ringe, Don (Professor of Linguistics, Professor of Linguistics, University of Pennsylvania)

This book describes the earliest reconstructable stages of the prehistory of English, drawing on work in Hittite, Sanskrit, Greek, Latin, Slavic, Gothic, and Old Norse. This second edition has been significantly revised to include new developments in the field and a more in-depth account of Proto-Indo-European.
