Suggested books for Sempervivum ID ?

We've had a question about a book to help out with Sempervivum identification - can forumists make any suggestions for this?
There is this book
https://www.schweizerbart.de/publications/detail/isbn/9783443500368/Praeger_An_Account_of_the_Sempervivum_G
But I don't know it so no idea how useful it would be for the questioner.

The National Collection for
Sempervivum
is held by Mr Wills, Fernwood Nursery (
http://www.fernwood-nursery.co.uk/
) He also holds a scientific collection and produced a useful illustrated book on
Sempervivum
and
Jovibarba
species and cultivars (
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Introduction-Sempervivum-Jovibarba-Species-Cultivars/dp/0954753305
) . I had a copy of the publication but sadly can no longer locate it. You may be able to get it second hand via ABE Books or Keithsbooks or direct from Fernwood Nursery.
Ray Stephenson is the national collection holder for
Jovibarba
cultivars bred by Cornelius Versteeg (2 spp 185 taxa). Ray can be contacted via
www.cactus-mall.com/sedum/
Hope that helps.

Yemen, what a country ... Haraz mountains, Socotra, Sana'a, Hadramaut, the empty quarter.... a country of stunning, mind altering beauty...and the friendliest of people.
