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 more ballads and yarns you’ll be wanting to recite in the evenings on the verandah. Again, we guarantee a belly-full of laughs or your money back.
