Mark Latham, the boy from western Sydney who rocketed into the national spotlight when he became Labor leader last December, is the most exciting public politician since Bob Hawke.

With the Australian people set to go to the polls, the ongoing unrest with John Howard's policies, and the growing popularity of Mark Latham, a man nobody dreamt could be the Labor Party's saviour this biography is the story about the rise of Mark Latham. It takes the Latham trail from the rented state home to the national parliament and a roadway that could lead to the Lodge in 2004 - or sometime soon.

Includes interviews with Paul Keating, Simon Crean and Latham himself.
