The man from Snowy River and other verses

  • Andrew Barton 'Banjo' Paterson

0

0 ratings

The bush poet, Australia's chronicler of lives past, folklore in written form. Pioneering days, bravery and foolishness, friends and foes are put into poems from an Australia from long ago but still alive. From the classics of Australian literacy, the man simply known as 'the Banjo' is the preeminent balladeer of all.

Listen to the rhythm and be taken up in the spirit of the underdog, the man who has to prove his worth in the Man from Snowy River, the story of Mulga Bill and his bicyle being a tale of pride and falls. So many classic verses that every Australian should know by heart as it is the beating heart of Australia's history in rhyme.
