We have several Heimatbücher in our list library. (But not that one yet).
They are all in German. I'll get back to the library project later this
year, but the archives will contain a list of the books (search backwards
for "Lending Library") and since no one expressed an interest in receive a
book loan earlier, I'm focusing on preparing a website to store the facts
that I want to extract from these books as I can get them translated.
