We need your help
Arthur L Clamp published around 150 different books. Although many were written by himself, a good number were written by other authors. This makes searching for them challenging! Sadly, we don’t have a complete list of all the books. However, we are slowly forming a more complete list which we’ve shared below.
There are several clues that reveal whether it might be a book he published:
Is it published by Westway Publications or PDS Printers?
Is it in the same format as other books written by him?
Does it use a ‘Times New Roman’ style font?
Does the book mention him in passing?
Does the book include a photo of his children.
I appreciate the last one is a little tricky to verify! Often he would take his family out for a walk at the weekend and would just happen to choose a location where he needed a photo. In the age of Kodak cameras and film, he would take a few photos that included his children standing next to the target object or location. The best would sneakily make it into his publications.
Books we already have
These are the books we have already found and will be releasing soon. They’ll be added to the store as soon as they are ready to publish.
