This two-volume set presents a definitive collection of verse by A.B. “Banjo” Paterson, one of Australia’s most iconic bush poets. Published by Ure Smith in 1980, it gathers Paterson’s most celebrated ballads—including The Man from Snowy River, Clancy of the Overflow, and Waltzing Matilda—alongside lesser-known works that reflect the wit, rhythm, and rugged spirit of colonial Australia. Each volume is handsomely bound and illustrated with vivid paintings by Pro Hart, whose expressive style complements Paterson’s lyrical depictions of outback life, horsemanship, and frontier humor. The pairing of Paterson’s verse with Hart’s artwork elevates this edition beyond mere anthology, offering collectors and literary enthusiasts a richly visual tribute to Australian cultural heritage.
