Not sure there really is such a thing. In English you have three 4000m peaks of the alps books, and I think that’s about it. Don’t know if there are any guide books really dedicated to a single route or even mountain really.
there's a guide book for the north face of the Grandes Jorrassses but never seen a guidebook for a single route. But there must several books about the Matterhorn, although maybe not in English
Is the ‘Valais Alps West’ Alpine Club guide by Lindsay Griffin (1998) no longer in print? Has 24 pages on the Matterhorn, and 3½ pages devoted to the Hornli alone. Plus two good photodiagrams.
PS. Just looked it up on the internet. Unfortunately it doesn’t seem to be available anywhere.
Would I get myself in trouble if I scanned the Hornli pages and sent it to you?
I have now scanned the relevant pages. I think it would be wrong to put it on line, but I will send it to you if you give me your email address, on the strict understanding that it is for your use only, and not to be given/sold to anyone else. I know Lindsay Griffin, so I don’t think he’d mind if it’s done in this way.
