Description - The Cattle Dogs Revenge: Bush Ballards and Yarns by Jack Drake
The Cattle Dog's Revenge will remind you of Banjo Paterson's The Man from Ironbark. Truly, these are genuine bush ballads for genuine bush people. - Old Silvertail * Bush Poet of the Year, 2001. The Asthma Foundation of NSW * Winner, Original Performance, National Bush Poetry Championship. Brisbane EKKA 2001 * The Tenterfield Oracles of the Bush, Written 1999, Performance 2000 & 2001 * Australian Bush Laureate Awards at Tamworth, Finalist with The Cattle Dog's Revenge CD, 2002 * Australian Bush Laureate Awards at Tamworth, Finalist with Dinkum Poetry CD, 2003 The Australian bushman's sense of humour is legendary: dry, laconic and with a good bite. Jack Drake is one of Australia's best writers and reciters of this comic bush verse. But he also has a great sense of the farcical and the crazy tall story. These are ballads and yarns you'll be wanting to recite in the evenings on the verandah. We guarantee a belly-full of laughs or your money back.
