It's Here! At Home In The House Of My Fathers

I didn't have to order one; my pastor brought me a signed copy from the Western Missouri District Pastor's Conference earlier this week. 

Walther's theological opinion (Gutachten) on parish boundaries is interesting.  Very much in line with Luther's views about the subject that I've read -- I can't remember if that was from Letters of Spiritual Counsel or The True Visible Church/Form of a Christian Congregation.

Schwan (who I've quoted before on this blog) is great.  On the Temperence Movement:  "A German Christian does not become mixed up with those who demand prohibition of alcohol on Sunday; rather, he is aways for good, strong law enforcement."
