Publishers Description: The poet A B Banjo Paterson, best known for his rousing folk classics "The Man from Snowy River" and "Waltzing Matilda," is widely acknowledged as Australias greatest and most popular balladist. His poems, written with great gusto and humour, celebrate all the romance and rough-and-tumble of old Australia. In this collection, leading Paterson scholar Clement Semmler presents more than 100 of Patersons poems that reflect the remarkable richness and range of his writings. Generously illustrated with period drawings, this first Penguin edition of Patersons verse pays tribute to one of Australias favourite sons the Banjo of the Bush.
