Hello all, I bought the book "A Ilha das Flores: da redescoberta à actualidade (Subsídios para a sua História)" last summer when I went to Flores. They have boxes and boxes of that book, waiting to be sold at the newly-inaugurated "Museum of Lajes das Flores". I couldn't find the museum contacts online, but I'm pretty sure that if you get in touch with the Lajes das Flores City Hall, they'll provide the info: http://www.cmlajesdasflores.pt/contactos/index.php
