This book contains the most complete and unusual collection of Australian folk songs published. Ron Edward spent half his life collecting them from all parts of Australia, usually from prime sources including old men who could remember roaring them out in their youth.
There are songs of convicts, bushrangers, gold-seekers, lawmakers and lawbreakers, teamsters, drovers, stockmen, shearers and strikers. (back cover)
