When a young man submitted a set of verses to the 'Bulletin' in 1889 under the pseudonym "The Banjo", it was the beginning of an enduring tradition. Today Banjo Paterson remains one of Australia's best-loved poets of all time.
This complete collection of his verse shows the bush balladeers at his very best with favourites such as 'A Bush Christening', 'The Man From Ironbark', 'Clancy Of The Overflow' and the immortal 'The Man From Snowy River'. These well known verses are joined here by his comic verse, his remarkable war poems, including 'We're Australians Now', and lesser known works.
