I am surprised that there has only been the briefest of mentions for Banjo Paterson and no mention at all of Henry Lawson - both are equals of anything written by either Service or Kipling.

Man from Snowy River
Pardon the son of Reprieve
Rio Grande
The Saltbush Bill Stories
Droving Days
The Story of Old Mongrel Grey
Final Parade
The Boss of the Admiral Lynch
Father Murphy's Horse
The Bushman's Tale

All of them absolutely terrific stories
