1st German edition of the celebrated Latin compilation of voyages, first published in 1532. It contains all the accounts from the first Latin edition of 1532 apart from Münster's Introduction, to which the map belongs. No map is therefore wanted in this edition. This edition also contains Peter Martyr's Decades and De Legatione Babylonica, both wanting in the Latin editions. Famous Voyage accounts include those by Varthema, Cadamosto, Vespucci and Columbus.
