Soft cover. 153 pp. Damp staining to head of front endpapers, pages stuck together. A few stains to box. Else fine. From his childhood in the Western District of New South Wales and through the bush ramblings of his youth and manhood, Banjo Paterson gathered bush ballads - those home-grown songs and poems about rural life, written and sung by everyday people.
