As the stock are slowly stringing, Clancy rides behind them singing, For the drover’s life has pleasures, That the townsfolk never know. First published in 1889, Banjo Paterson’s iconic poem has been loved by generations. Capturing the grit of the city, and the longed-for freedom of the wide, open plains where Clancy rides, it is now published with stunning new illustrations by award-winning illustrator Andrew McLean.
