Christoph Brouwer ( Browerius ) Arnhem 1559 - Trier 1617, compiled this history of Trier on the instigation of Archbishop Johann VII of Schoenenberg and Lothar of Mitternich with the intent to support the claims of the archbishops against the city of Trier. His honesty and his historical method however led to the suppression of the first Cologne edition (1626), which is now exceedingly rare. This Liège edition from 1670 was enhanced and reworked by Jacob Masen. (See Catholic Encyclopedia)."
