There are PDF's available of some of these books from the UK based
Lakes Gliding Club website:

Click on "archive" on the left

Then click on "Old Gliding Books"

Wolf Hirth's book is there, you can download the PDF onto your
computer. They also have quite a few PDF's of "Sailplane & Gliding"
and the VGC News there as well under the "Old Gliding Mags" tab.

Enjoy...!
