Johann Veldener

He worked as a punchcutter and printer in Cologne, together with William Caxton, who may have financed his first books.[1] He left Leuven in 1477, after the death of Charles the Bold caused unrest in the city, and went to Utrecht.When that city also became troubled, he left for Culemborg, and finally returned to Leuven in 1484.[3][4] While in Utrecht, Veldener also supposedly wrote a Chronyck van Hollandt, Zeelandt, ende Westvrieslandt (a Chronicle of Holland, Sealand, and Western Friesland), which was reprinted in 1650 in Utrecht.Currently it is believed that these works were anonymous and printed by him, and that the later attributions to him as writer are erroneous.
