The Old Bush Songs

The Old Bush Songs is a book written by Australian poet and author, A.B. Paterson. It was originally published in 1905 and is a collection of traditional Australian folk songs that were composed and sung during the early days of bushranging, digging, and overlanding. The book includes lyrics to over 100 songs, many of which were popular among the pioneers who settled in Australia during the 19th century. The songs cover a range of themes, including love, loss, hardship, and adventure, and provide a glimpse into the lives and culture of early Australians. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Australian folk music and the country's cultural heritage.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
