Create a page for custom posts

I am trying to create a page to display my custom posts types. They have a custom template and custom fields that work fine. I have tried the code from the codex below but I just get a blank page.

<?php
/**
 * Template Name: Page of Books
 *
 * Selectable from a dropdown menu on the edit page screen.
 */
?>

<?php get_header(); ?>
		<div id="container">
			<div id="content">
<?php
$type = 'book';
$args=array(
 'post_type' => $type,
 'post_status' => 'publish',
 'paged' => $paged,
 'posts_per_page' => 2,
 'ignore_sticky_posts'=> 1
);
$temp = $wp_query; // assign ordinal query to temp variable for later use
$wp_query = null;
$wp_query = new WP_Query($args);
?>
<?php get_template_part( 'loop', 'index' );?>
	</div><!-- #content -->
</div><!-- #container -->
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
