A fair collection but focussed on the 1800s. There are glaring omissions such as is "The Ballad of 1891" which, though written in 1950 for a play, is distinctively Australian. Likewise "Click go the shears" by Rolf Harris, I would be surprised if iconic poems such as "The Man from Snowy River" and "The Warrumbungle Mare" have not been set to music. ( )

Great book, great songs such as The cockies of Bungaree, The limejuice tub, Widgegoara Joe: the backblock shearer and Humping Old Bluey.
