Great titles in English translation:

-"Medieval Germany: 1056-1273", Alfred Haverkamp
-"Germany in the High Middle Ages: 1050-1200", Horst Fuhrmann
-"Frederick Barbarossa", Marcel Pacaut
-"The Deeds of Frederick Barbarossa", Otto of Freising
-"Henry the Lion", Karl Jordan

Excellent Websites (If you can't read German, use BabelFish to translate):

-"Genealogie Mittelalter", with biographies & genealogies on every important Imperial (German, Italian, Burgundian) noble family of the original Holy Roman Empire (911-1273): http://www.genealogie-mittelalter.de/

-"WW Person", an index of regnal/noble chronologies for the Empire and all its fiefs/principalities: http://www8.informatik.uni-erlangen.de/cgi-bin....s (http://www8.informatik.uni-erlangen.de/cgi-bin/stoyan/wwp/LANG=engl/?class)

Hope this helps http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/gc-wink2.gif
