Collier for Miranda: The 1999 Labor Campaign is an easy-to-read, political memoir with a difference. It's the true story of a grassroots campaign by a first-time candidate seeking election as the Labor MP for the southern Sydney seat of Miranda in the New South Wales Parliament

An unknown, inexperienced political aspirant given no chance of defeating the very high profile, sitting Liberal MP, Barry Collier recounts his 1999 campaign -- run on a shoestring budget with the help of local Labor Party members and supporters.

Barry takes you on a real political journey, from his preselection to election night itself. Along the way, he reveals his conversations with voters at their front doors, on the streets, at the railway stations and at the polling booths. He outlines the lessons he learnt and offers practical, down-to-earth advice with do's and don'ts about campaigning.

This book is a must read for political aspirants about to set foot on that perilous campaign trail and for the student of Australian politics. The lessons of the 1999 Labor campaign for Miranda are as relevant today as back then.
