The Man from Snowy River was originally a poem written by A.B. 'Banjo' Paterson in Australia.Set among the cattlemen that raised cattle and horses in the high country of southern New South Wales, where the Snowy River has its source, it is a typically patriotic "bush ballad" that champions the "underdog" (the man from Snowy River) who was described as a stripling on a small and weedy beast - yet was the only one able to return not only an escaped valuable horse, but a whole herd of mountain brumbies.

He is just described as being a stripling on a small and weedy beast.In the movie, which was a loose adaptation of the ballad, the man from Snowy River was given the name of Jim Craig, and played by actor Tom Burlinson. There were a number of stunt riders, among them Ken Connley, Gerald Egan, Bill Stacey, Louis Trifunic and Bill Willoughby.For more details of who all the "crack riders" were, see the related link.

In Banjo Paterson's bush ballad, "The Man From Snowy River", the main character did not die. He and his horse returned, triumphant, after collecting the wild horses and the escaped colt from Old Regret. However, the man on whom Banjo Paterson's poem was based, horseman Jack Riley, eventually died of combined old age and illness in July 1914, many years after the ballad was written. At the time of his death, friends had carried him as far as a deserted miners' hut at Surveyor's Creek Junction, where they stopped overnight while trying to get Riley to a hospital at Corryong.
"The Man From Snowy River" was written by A.B. "Banjo" Paterson in 1890.
