The Dave Walker Guide to the Church was published by Canterbury Press at the end of August 2006 and launched at the Greenbelt Festival (pictures). It costs £5.99 and contain about 90 of my cartoons, about 70 of those being the ‘Guide to the Church’ series from the Church Times and the remainder being some that have appeared on this website along with some other new material. The book has now been reprinted (December 2006) and the ISBN number is now 9781853117794.

Shops where a physical copy has been seen on the shelves by Cartoon Blog readers:

If you are making a special journey I would advise telephoning the shop first, as this list is probably out of date by now.

Shops that have ordered the book at some point:
The publishers have sent me this list. It includes every shop that has ordered a copy of the book, but it does not necessarily mean that there is a copy on the shelves as they might have ordered a copy in for a customer or sold out. You are advised to check before travelling – doing a Google search will usually give you a telephone number.
