This definitive collection brings together 186 of his finest poems, including beloved classics like Waltzing Matilda, The Man from Snowy River, In the Droving Days, A Bush Christening, and Saltbush Bill, giving readers the full sweep of a poet who gave Australia some of its most enduring stories and characters. Carefully edited by Walter Stone, the volume is enriched with period engravings that place each poem firmly in the colonial and bush era that inspired them, making this as much a visual document of a vanished Australia as it is a literary one. Whether you grew up reciting these verses at school or you are coming to Paterson fresh, the experience of reading him in this form, complete and illustrated, feels like recovering something important. For lovers of Australian poetry, bush literature, and colonial history, this is the edition worth owning.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Summit Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67910202851411,"sku":"9780727103130","price":34.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2255\/2009\/files\/9780727103130-cover-273bd90e1805a3b77b02.jpg?v=1792888438","url":"https:\/\/www.tinsignfactoryaustralia.com.au\/products\/the-best-of-banjo-paterson","provider":"Tin Sign Factory Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
