FIRST EDITION, published posthumously by Ludovic Schradin. Stöffler, professor of mathematics at the University of Tübingen, was a highly important and influential astronomer, who counted both Melanchthon and Sebastian Münster among his students.

It also contains two important references to the discovery of America by Colombus on leaves 24 and 54. Adams S-1897; Houzeau and Lancaster 2449; Sabin 91983; Zinner 1579.
