The Old Bush Songs

The Old Bush Songs is a book of Australian folk songs that were composed and sung during the bushranging, digging, and overlanding days of the late 19th century. The book was compiled and edited by A.B. Paterson, a renowned Australian poet and author. The songs included in the book reflect the unique experiences of the Australian bush, from the harsh realities of life as a miner to the excitement and danger of bushranging. The book also includes historical notes and anecdotes about the songs and their origins. Published in 1905, The Old Bush Songs remains a valuable resource for anyone interested in Australian folklore and history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
