Some information for people who might be considering buying my book, the Dave Walker Guide to the Church, as a Christmas present. All the information about the best places to buy the book is still on this page (the one you get when you click the book cover photo to the left), but this is the latest news:

• The publishers Canterbury Press do free postage on orders over £50. Ideal for those who want to give a copy to all the vicars they know.
• Christian bookshops: a lot of SPCKs have it, but not all, so phone and check if making a special journey. They do have it online, as do St Andrew’s bookshops. Wesley Owen will be stocking it soon I am assured.
• Waterstones online had a very good offer on the book, though they have now put the price up again.
• Waterstones in Eastbourne have the book prominently displayed according to my spies, as does the Piccadilly branch. This may have changed by now of course. Unfortunately none of the other Waterstones shops that I have been to in the last month seem to have an actual physical copy on the shelves. As with any bookshop quoting ISBN number 185311779X should mean they can order it.
• If you can get it via a local independent or Christian bookshop please do. One example: Presence, 19-21 The Parade, High Street, Watford WD17 1LQ, (01923 237633) are stocking it. You can go there for coffeee and free WiFi too. Thanks Paul!
• The Church Times bookshop do a 10% discount, but you do pay postage.
• Then there is Amazon: UK / USA

Thanks to everyone who has bought the book so far and to those who have said kind things.
