Description
Banjo Paterson has an enduring place in Australian history. His work is loved by Australians everywhere, a love that often stems from childhood. His first collection of poetry, which included The Man from Snowy River was published in 1895, the same year he wrote Waltzing Matilda. This brand new collection introduces Banjo Paterson to a new audience of readers, with favourites such as Mulga Bill's Bicycle, Clancy of the Overflow, Waltzing Matilda, The Geebung Polo Club, The Man from Ironbark, The Man from Snowy River, A Bush Christening, Brumby's Run and many more. Black and white drawings complement the unforgettable characters and animals that fill his stories, poems, ballads and rhymes with humour, energy and insight.
