Why did Banjo Paterson die?

Answer 1

AB 'Banjo' Paterson, famous Australian bush poet and author, was born not far from Orange, in New South Wales. He was a fully qualified solicitor by the age of 23. A scholarly and well-read person, Paterson began publishing his poetry in the Sydney edition of The Bulletin in 1885 under the pseudonym of "The Banjo", which was the name of one of his favourite horses.

In 1890 he wrote "The Man From Snowy River", a poem which caught the heart of the nation, and in 1895 had a collection of his works published under that name. This book is the most sold collection of Australian Bush Poetry and is still being reprinted today. A "bush balladeer", he was also the author of other well known poems such "Clancy of the Overflow", "Mulga Bill's Bicycle" and, of course, "Waltzing Matilda".
