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.
