Extractions: A. B. ("Banjo") Paterson (1864-1941) Andrew Barton Paterson was born at Narambla Station near Orange in New South Wales in 1864. He grew up near Yass in NSW and attended school in the small town of Binalong, and later in Sydney. He started out as a lawyer's clerk before being admitted as a solicitor. After the publication of The Man From Snowy River and Other Verses in 1895, he became something of a literary celebrity in Australia. He travelled widely throughout the country and also was war correspondent in the Boer War in South Africa, and covered the Boxer Rebellion in China. He was later to become editor of the Sydney Evening News and then the Australian Town and Country Journal . At the outbreak of World War I he travelled to Europe to cover the conflict but was unable to get to the front in France. Frustrated by this he returned to Australia and joined the Remount Service which supplied horses for the Australian cavalry in the Middle East. After the War he returned to Sydney, journalism and writing poetry and prose. Paterson is best remembered as the the author of Waltzing Matilda - Australia's unofficial national anthem.

It is not possible to do justice to the life and time of "A B" in the space available and at the same time keep the readers interest over a few monitor screens. As such, what follows is an all but too brief overview of the man to whom the swagman/shearers of the 1890's, and those of us who have followed them, owe a great debt. Banjo has immortalised the Australian spirit in a song for what ever reason has been braced by the nation as typically Australian. Although the greater percentage of Australians had, or may still have, no idea what the song really meant or why it was written, they could still identify with the ethos of a fair go .

The family owned a race horse named Banjo and in his earlier writings for the Bulletin, Paterson used the pseudonym 'The Banjo'. Banjo Paterson was born at Narambla Station, New South Wales but considered his home on Illalong Station near Yass, New South Wales as his childhood home. Many experiences during his childhood where he was in contact with drovers, bushrangers, and teamsters became the basis for his writings including the Australian Bush Myths. Paterson was the eldest child of Andrew Bogle Paterson, an immigrant to Australia in 1850, and Rose Isabella (nee Barton). Banjo began his education at the small country school in Binalong and later was sent to Sydney (Gladesville) where he lived with his widowed grandmother Emily Mary Barton. After finishing his education in Sydney, he became a clerk in a solicitor's office. Paterson was admitted as a solicitor in August 1886. His first published poem was El Mahdi to the Australian Troops . He was only 21 years old when it was published by the Bulletin in February 1885.
