Commemorative Centennial Edition
First published on 17 October 1895, 'The Man From Snowy River and Other Verses' took the country by storm and has remained one of Australia's bestselling and most popular books ever since. The classic title poem by the Bard of the Bush, A B "Banjo" Paterson, continues to inspire the spirit of our nation in readers today.
This centennial edition recreates the atmosphere of the times, faithfully reproducing the original 1895 edition of forty-six ballads selected by Paterson together with his publisher, George Robertson. It is now introduced by historian Jonathan King and beautifully illustrated with images of the remote high country and its people.
