He made globes maps of North America a comprehensive map of European coastlines and the first printed Hebrew language map of The Holy Land. His first teacher was Jodocus Hondius 15631612 a renowned map-maker whose son-in-law was Johannes Janssonius. After Hondius died his son-in-law Jan Janssonius took over Hondius's business and continued the partnership with Goos. One of Hondius' specialties was the manufacture of globes and Goos and Janssonius continued this regularly modifying them as more geographical information became available. In 1616 he published Nieuw Nederlandtsch Caertboeck an atlas of the Seventeen Provinces in 23 maps and one of the first atlases of the Netherlands; Johannes Janssonius 1588-1664 was a renowned geographer and publisher of the seventeenth century when the Dutch dominated map publishing in Europe. unknown

With a cast ornament on title-page and 4 woodcut initials. One of four issues published in the same year of a pamphlet concerning the possibility of a truce with Spain containing the "considerations and reasons" proposed by the Dutch West-India Company WIC to the Dutch States General. After the loss of 's Hertogenbosch in 1629 the Spanish King Philip IV proposed a truce which left the Dutch Republic divided also causing debate between the Remonstrants Counter-Remonstrants and Calvinists who first wished to create unity before paying attention to Spain. The directors and shareholders of the WIC dreaded a truce with Spain since capturing Spanish ships was a large source of income for the company Piet Heyn had captured the Zilvervloot in 1628.

1571réf. HCLAD73TWO2SAntwerp: Christophe Plantin 1571. Modern vellum. 4to. With armorial woodcut on the title page. Rare royal decree on marine insurance addressed to the Council of Brabant replacing the decree of 27 October 1570. In 1569 the Duke of Alfa took a radical measure by banning all marine insurance. "This "provisional" decree of 31 March 1569 was abolished by an ordinance of 27 October 1570 of Philips II. Marine insurances were again allowed. Ships could only leave the port with the permission of an officer after an inspection of their armament. This decree also charged that all policies should contain a detailed report of the goods on board. Diego Gonzalez Gante was appointed to inspect these contracts. He also had to prepare an new instruction. This decree contained as well a formulary of an marine insurance. After a petition of the merchants and Nations of Antwerp a new ordinance was promulgated three months later on 20 January 1571. This decree provided that only ten percent remained to the own risk of the insurance taker. The goods the name of the vessel and the captain had to be mentioned in the insurance policy. To prevent fraud Diego Gonzalez Gante was also appointed to control everything. An insurance policy which was not recorded by him was to be declared null and void. Not only in Antwerp but also in Bruges Amsterdam and Middelburg people under his authority had full powers to verify this" Huybrechts. This decree also prohibited life assurance.With three lines underscored otherwise a very good copy and wholly untrimmed.l USTC 401508 6 copies; Voet 1981 4 copies incl. 3 the same; WorldCat 3 the same copies; cf.

Page including Our Little Polish Cousin and Our Little Austrian Cousin w/ her bookplate on verso of front wrapper. First edition of this scarce and important history of the Arab conquest of Spain whose author was an early proponent of the wide-ranging impact of Arab learning and inventions on Western Europe. He describes the development and adoption of paper by the Arabs as early as 706 A.D. long before widespread use in Western Europe; the appropriation of the compass by the Arabs from the Chinese which was not commonly used in Western Europe until the 13th century; as well as the tremendous impact of the introduction of gunpowder mentioning the possible early use by the Arabs in 690 during a siege of Mecca but was probably a result of the development of the use of gunpowder bomb catapults used against the the Arabs in the 13th century. The first time gunpowder was used in Western Europe the Moors used primitive guns against the Spaniards under King Alfonso X of Castile when he laid seige to the city of Niebla in 1262.

1893réf. 236066London: Chiswick Press 1893. No. 11 of 13 copies printed on vellum there were also 88 copies printed on paper. Title with vignette numerous woodcut illustrations and large initial capitals. 1 vols. Folio 12-3/4 x 8-7/8 in.; 32.4 x 22.5 cm.

Folio 12-3/4 x 8-7/8 in.; 32.4 x 22.5 cm. This work consists of two important ordinances issued by the Spanish monarchy on November 20 1542 and June 4 1543. Under the active influence of Bartolomeo de las Casas "friend of the Indians" the new laws had the special design of ensuring better treatment of the Indians limiting the distribution of their lands and above all protecting them against enslavement by the conquering Spaniards. "Las Leyes Nuevas" are reprinted here in this fine facsimile from the copy on vellum in the British Museum and are followed by an English translation. Much of the book is taken up by the historical Introduction by Henry Stevens who denounces the Spanish mistreatment of the Indians. Ironically the Spanish crown was later forced to rescind the new laws by colonists who were outraged at having to give up their right to a quota of enslaved Indian laborers. A magnificent and impressive production by the Chiswick Press one of only 13 printed on vellum. Chiswick Press unknown
