Garland Summers is a musical prodigy. When his coming-of-age journey leads him to receive his first guitar, it is not long before he is entertaining not just his parents, but also those he loves. Garland naturally feels the music, and it feels him. As he matures, a new dawn of music arrives with the sixties. Prompted by his mother, Garland begins taking guitar lessons from a musician who also becomes a father figure to him while his own is away serving his country. As his journey leads him to marriage, fatherhood, and eventually to having the biggest selling record of all time, Garland and his band are nominated for several Grammys, just as everything crashes down around him. But it is not until he is confined to a jail cell that a shocking secret is revealed that will lead Garland in an unexpected direction, both professionally and personally. Touch is the story of a budding musician’s journey to success as he develops from a boy into a man determined to overcome all his obstacles while positively impacting the world with his music.

This book is an authoritative history of the NSW Parliament from its establishment in 1856 to 2003. It gives comprehensive accounts of both the Legislative Assembly and the Legislative Council, including analyses of their performance based on contrasting 'liberal' and 'executive' models of Parliament.The history of the Parliament is contextualised by the changing political background in which it operated over 150 years. It is enlivened by portraits of colourful Members, such as WP 'Paddy' Crick, drunken brawler and master of Parliamentary procedure, and accounts of incidents such as George Fuller's seven hour Government and the siege by trade unionists in 2003.On a broader level, the book is a dissertation on the nature of State politics and Parliaments and on the theoretical study of parliamentary institutions. A NSW Sesquicentenary of Responsible Government publication.
