Czerny and Hummel Methods

This will be my last search for Czerny and Hummels method I hope so.

I have looked everywhere on the Internet for Johann Nepomuk Hummels A complete theoritical and practical course on the art of playing the piano forte and Czerny a complete theoritical and practical course on the art of playing the piano forte books and both have the same names.

Does anyone have them or know where they may be?

if somebody could help me please.

amazing for the Hummel book to be unavailable, since it became widely famous and wide spread between 1825 and 1835... I believe in fact that the modern way to play the trills by starting them with the real note (and not with the appogiatura) was a craze started just from 1825 and during the 5 or 6 next years, and just because of the publication of this method by Hummel... since I've heard that he spends quite some time and energy in his preface campaining for it, presenting it like his new idea...
