Princess Elizabeth (1596-1662), Queen of Bohemia and Electress Palatine, consort of Frederick V, eldest and only surviving daughter of James I (1566-1625) and his wife, Anne of Denmark (1574-1619)."John Dickenson his Maties late Agent wth the Princes possessors of Cleve and Juliers [princes possessioners of Jülich-Cleves], humblie craveth allowance... for these extraordinarie disbursemts... . ffor his expence in travell attending the Lady Elizabeth... from Arneham & Curren together wth the charges of procuring three safe conducts for her highnesse and traine [£]70... ."John Dickenson was probably educated at Clare College, Cambridge in the 1580s. In the 1590s and until the early years of the seventeenth century he published a number of works, including, Arisbas, 1594, The Shepheardes Complaint, [?1596], and Greene in Conceipt, 1598, "now remembered for its title-page depiction of Robert Greene scribbling in his winding-sheet" [Oxford DNB]. In 1598 Dickenson published for Adam Islip a translation of Aristotle's Politiques and shortly after, perhaps through the influence of Sir Robert Sidney, became secretary to George Gilpin, Queen Elizabeth's agent at The Hague. Thereafter Dickenson became a much valued agent of the crown in the Low Countries and Germany, undertaking several diplomatic journeys including escorting Princess Elizabeth from Arnhem to Cologne, and later to Sigismund III in Poland. In later years he returned to London and served as a clerk of the privy council extraordinary, though he still undertook several diplomatic missions abroad. "Learned and analytical, Dickenson is in his literary writings as in his political letters a master of the small details... his ability to unpick the wording of treaties, where ambiguous syntax and confusions of translation were rife, and his insightful analyses of people and politics, were valued." - Oxford DNB.

The first is a scarce edition of the popular abridgment of Apian's Cosmographicus liber of 1524 and introduces readers to geography including the poles, meridian, Arctic & Antarctic circles, tropics, latitude & longitude etc., and mentions the discovery of America by Amerigo Vespucci on C1r & C2v, calling it a "fourth part" of the world. This is the fourth Venetian edition published by Sessa, after those of 1533, 1535 & 1541. It is not in Sabin and COPAC records only one copy (University College, London).The second work, a treatise on the planispheric astrolabe for astronomers and navigators, is a later edition of the earliest book on any scientific instrument. It is now ascribed to Robert of Chester who worked in Segovia and London and wrote a treatise on the universal astrolabe, produced tables for the meridian of London, and translated al-Kwarizmi's Algebra. It was first printed in Perugia c.1477-79 but was edited by Pietro Catena and published in Venice in 1512. It describes the astrolabe and how to use it to locate astronomical bodies, determine local time and establish latitude and longitude. It is not listed on COPAC; WorldCat lists 2 copies only (Leiden and Michigan).
