that Krüger's book from 1912 has been scanned, and is freely
available as a pdf-file:
Krüger, L.
Konforme Abbildung des Erdellipsoids in der Ebene.
Potsdam : Teubner, 1912. 172 p.
http://edoc.gfz-potsdam.de/gfz/10452
I also found a paper in Journal of Geodesy. I have only seen
the abstract, so I don't know how interesting it is, but I
mention it since it was published this year:
Bermejo-Solera, Mercedes and Otero, Jesús.
Simple and highly accurate formulas for the computation
of Transverse Mercator coordinates from longitude and
isometric latitude.
Journal of Geodesy, Online First, April 2008, Springer.
