Palau 156391; Gunther Astrolabes P. 570 & 591; USTC 149570. Early edition first published in 1519. The only book printed by Jean Barbé who is commonly thought to have also illustrated the book. A famous treatise on the use of the astrolabe by a lecturer in the Collège Royale first printed in Paris in 1519 by Henri Estienne and reprinted there at least seven times the last in 1557. RARE: According to online records only one complete copy of this work to sell at auction to appear since 1964. Johannes Martinus Población was a prominent Spanish physician mathematician and astronomer from Valencia who achieved great fame in 16th-century European humanist circles. His most celebrated work is De usu astrolabi compendium A Compendium on the Use of the Astrolabe first published in Paris around 1519. The book served as a highly practical best-selling 16th-century manual. The first part carefully describes the astronomy tool. The second part details its application in solving real-world problems regarding topography geometry seamanship and geography. An astrolabe is an astronomical instrument dating to ancient times. It serves as a star chart and physical model of the visible half-dome of the sky. Its various functions also make it an elaborate inclinometer and an analog calculation device capable of working out several kinds of problems in astronomy. In its simplest form it is a metal disc with a pattern of wires cutouts and perforations that allows a user to calculate astronomical positions precisely. It is able to measure the altitude above the horizon of a celestial body day or night; it can be used to identify stars or planets to determine local latitude given local time and vice versa to survey or to triangulate. It was used in classical antiquity the Byzantine Empire the Islamic Golden Age the European Middle Ages and the Age of Discovery for all these purposes. The astrolabe which is a precursor to the sextant is effective for determining latitude on land or calm seas. Although it is less reliable on the heaving deck of a ship in rough seas the mariner's astrolabe was developed to solve that problem.

Robert Ross (1753-1823) was born in Lancaster, PA, and died in Nicholson Twp, Fayette Co. PA. In 1776 Robert took the oath of allegiance before Col. Miller of Lancaster Co. PA. and enlisted in the Revolutionary War as a private in Capt. James Taylor's company, 4th Penn. Battalion. Ross was regimental color bearer in 1776, under Gen. Anthony Wayne, at the storming of Stony Point (NY). In 1779 at Brandywine and through the Canadian campaign to the close of the war. Robert Ross fought also in the Indian Wars of 1790-1794. Robert Ross was an early settler, of Nicholson Twp. It does not appear that in the early part of the Revolutionary war he was reckoned among the adherents of the patriot cause, but in June, 1779, he took the oath of allegiance to Pennsylvania, and afterwards served to the end of the war under General Wayne. At the close of the struggle he, like thousands of others, was paid the arrears due him for services in Continental money, which was depreciated to one-fortieth of its face value. He afterwards served in the various Indian campaigns in Ohio and Indiana, rising to the rank of captain. In the Whiskey Insurrection of 1794, Capt. Ross was on the side of the insurgents, and commanded a company of about one hundred men of the western and southwestern parts of the county, a part of the (supposed) available force of the insurrectionists to be used in opposition to the government. At the head of this company Capt. Ross marched to Uniontown in August, 1794, to raise the 'liberty poles' in the town, and two miles south of it at Gaddis' place. When Gen. Lee came in with his army to suppress the insurrection, a squadron of cavalry was sent towards the Monogahela for the capture of Robert Ross as insurgent leader, but the expedition was unsuccessful.
