I like Ralf Ellis but I have one of his books and he does a lot of “etymology” based historical analysis and I am not sure what he draws as conclusions from this is necessarily valid. Admittedly, I don’t know too much about the technicalities of etymology but I do know that sometimes words looking similar and sounding similar is not enough to prove an origin.
