With the 2013 race for the Lodge now run and won, who better than Mungo MacCallum to make sense of it all? With wit and insight, Mungo documents the ups and downs of this longest of campaigns. He dissects Labor's self-destructive leadership war, the Coalition's cheap and nasty Broadband Lite, and the plight of our billionaire battlers, doing it tough on $250K.

This fast-paced and incisive account follows Canberra's finest as they speed around the country, taking selfies, kissing nuns and generally saying anything to get your vote. The Mad Marathon is the essential chronicle of the 2013 election year from one of Australia's most original and entertaining writers.
