That the colt from old Regret had got away,
And had joined the wild bush horses he was worth a thousand pound,
So all the cracks had gathered to the fray..." So begins the immortal poem by Andrew Barton ("Banjo") Paterson , first published in 1890, that has inspired generations of Australians.

Three Elephant Power
by Andrew Barton ‘Banjo' Paterson
Barring a tendency to flash driving, and a delight in persecuting slow cars by driving just in front of them and letting them come up and enjoy his dust, and then shooting away again, he was a respectable member of society. When his boss was in the car he cloaked the natural ferocity of his instincts; but this day, with only myself on board, and a clear run of a hundred and twenty miles up to the station before him, he let her loose, confident that if any trouble occurred I would be held morally responsible. As we flew past a somnolent bush pub, Alfred, whistling softly, leant forward and turned on a little more oil. During this strenuous episode Alfred never relaxed his professional stolidity, and, when we were clear, went on with his story in the tone of a man who found life wanting in animation. Our progress here was barred by our rounding a corner right on to a flock of sheep, that at once packed together into a solid mass in front of us, blocking the whole road from fence to fence. Alfred smiled pityingly.

White-when-he's-wanted
by Andrew Barton ‘Banjo' Paterson
Buckalong was on one of the main routes by which stock were taken to market, or from the plains to the tablelands, and vice versa. Great mobs of travelling sheep constantly passed through the run, eating up the grass and vexing the soul of the manager. By law, sheep must travel six miles per day, and they must be kept to within half-a-mile of the road. Of course we kept all the grass near the road eaten bare, to discourage travellers from coming that way. Such hapless wretches as did venture through Buckalong used to try hard to stray from the road and pick up a feed, but old Sandy was always ready for them, and would have them dogged right through the run. This bred feuds, and bad language, and personal combats between us and the drovers, whom we looked upon as natural enemies. Next morning the drover got a crisp-looking cheque. He said no word while the cheque was being written, but, as he was going away, the horse happened to be in the yard, and he went over to the old comrade that had carried him so many miles, and laid a hand on his neck. new new horse or the old Every now and again we formed parties to run in some of these animals, and, after nearly galloping to death half-a-dozen good horses, we would capture three or four brumbies, and bring them in triumph to the homestead to be broken in. By the time they had thrown half the crack riders on the station, broken all the bridles, rolled on all the saddles, and kicked all the dogs, they would be marketable (and no great bargains) at about thirty shillings a head.

Clancy of The Overflow
by A. B. ('Banjo') Paterson (1864 - 1941)
I had written him a letter which I had, for want of better
Knowledge, sent to where I met him down the Lachlan, years ago,
He was shearing when I knew him, so I sent the letter to him,
Just "on spec", addressed as follows, "Clancy, of The Overflow" And an answer came directed in a writing unexpected,
(And I think the same was written with a thumb-nail dipped in tar)
'Twas his shearing mate who wrote it, and verbatim I will quote it:
"Clancy's gone to Queensland droving, and we don't know where he are." In my wild erratic fancy visions come to me of Clancy
Gone a-droving "down the Cooper" where the Western drovers go;
As the stock are slowly stringing, Clancy rides behind them singing,
For the drover's life has pleasures that the townsfolk never know. And the bush hath friends to meet him, and their kindly voices greet him In the murmur of the breezes and the river on its bars, And he sees the vision splendid of the sunlit plains extended, And at night the wondrous glory of the everlasting stars.

This is just a very small collection of their works. Andrew Barton ('Banjo') Paterson Andrew Barton Paterson (1864 - 1941) was most famous for his stirring Bush Ballads . 'The Banjo', the name of a racehorse his father once owned, was the pen-name used by Paterson when he began contributing verses to The Bulletin, an influential newspaper of the time. His first big success was 'Clancy of the Overflow' which appeared in 1889. Paterson was born 17 February 1864, at Narambla, New South Wales. He was the son of a Scottish immigrant and the eldest of seven children. His younger years were spent near Yass in NSW. He attended Sydney Grammar School, but left at the age of 16. Paterson sat unsuccessfully for a university scholarship and entered a lawyer's office as an articled clerk - later becoming managing clerk and then a partner in the firm, Street and Paterson. Banjo Paterson was commissioned by the Sydney Morning Herald and became a successful journalist and war correspondent during the Boer War in 1899, and the Boxer Rebellion in China, in 1901.

A.B. "Banjo" Paterson
Few wrote with such passion for the sport of racing as "Banjo" Paterson. From an early career as a jumps jockey, Paterson became perhaps Australia’s greatest writer on racing and its characters.
One of his earliest efforts was the poem A Dream Of The Melbourne Cup (1886) whilst other poems included Only A Jockey Tommy Corrigan (1894) and In The Stable
Paterson’s prose included The Shearer’s Colt , a novel about racing published in 1936 while perhaps his most famous work The Man From Snowy River (1890) was later made into a highly successful motion picture.
Paterson also served as a correspondent (on horseback) during the Boer War and later became Editor of The Sportsman The Oxford Companion To Australian Literature perhaps best summed up Paterson when it called him "the supreme balladist of the horse".

    Banjo Paterson
    Andrew Barton "Banjo" Paterson ) was a famous Australian poet . He wrote many ballads and poems about Australian life, focusing particularly on the rural and outback areas. One of his most famous poems is " Waltzing Matilda ", which was set to music and became one of Australia's most famous songs. Others include " The Man From Snowy River ", which (loosely) inspired a movie in 1980 and (even more loosely) inspired a TV series in the 1990s, and "Clancy of the Overflow", the tale of a Queensland "drover" (cattle handler responsible for herding large mobs of cattle long distances to market), amongst several others. Paterson's poems mostly presented a highly romantic view of rural Australia. Paterson himself, like a majority of Australians even then and even more so since, was city-based and indeed was a practising lawyer. One may contrast his work with the (almost as famous) prose of Henry Lawson , a contemporary of Paterson's, including his work "The Drover's Wife", which presented a considerably less sugar-coated view of the harshness of rural existence of the late 19th century. Banjo Paterson's image appears on the (AUD) $10 note, along with an illustration inspired by "The Man From Snowy River" and, as part of the copy-protection microprint, the text of the poem itself.

    THE GEEBUNG POLO CLUB by A.B. "Banjo" Paterson (1864 - 1941) It was somewhere up the country in a land of rock and scrub, That they formed an institution called the Geebung Polo Club. They were long and wiry natives of the rugged mountainside, And the horse was never saddled that the Geebungs couldn't ride; But their style of playing polo was irregular and rash - They had mighty little science, but a mighty lot of dash: And they played on mountain ponies that were muscular and strong, Though their coats were quite unpolished, and their manes and tails were long. And they used to train those ponies wheeling cattle in the scrub: They were demons, were the members of the Geebung Polo Club. It was somewhere down the country, in a city's smoke and steam, That a polo club existed, called the Cuff and Collar Team. As a social institution 'twas a marvellous success, For the members were distinguished by exclusiveness and dress. They had natty little ponies that were nice, and smooth, and sleek, For their cultivated owners only rode 'em once a week.

    Waltzing Matilda
    Waltzing Matilda is possibly Australia's best known song. Although it features some strange elements, including archaic slang, it seems to strike a chord with many Australians. When he wrote the words of the song, Andrew Barton "Banjo" Paterson had no idea how enduring his ballad would be. Even the most blasé Australian stirs to the sound of what is often referred to as our unofficial national anthem, Waltzing Matilda. Overseas, it's a song that is immediately identified with "down under". Sometimes, it finds itself caught up in controversy. The present Rugby World Cup is a good example. The International Rugby Union Board (IRB) decided Australians were not allowed to sing Waltzing Matilda at the World Cup. Undaunted, Australian supporters have broken out in spontaneous accord with verses from Waltzing Matilda at games played since the competition started earlier this month. Former Australian rugby union captain John Eales remembers the spontaneous singing of Waltzing Matilda from the crowd as a highlight of his career. It was in Christchurch in 1998 with 20 minutes to play in a match in which Australia had forged a winning lead to bring home the Bledisloe Cup for the first time in four years. "It was a special moment. The crowd just suddenly started singing Waltzing Matilda. We just identified with it," Eales said. Activities: n Rewrite Waltzing Matilda as a short story.
