About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox volunteers bring you 9 recordings of On a Cattle Track by Henry Kendall.This was the Fortnightly Poetry project for January 28, 2018. Read in English by Algy Pug; Bruce Kachuk; Greg Giordano; Ian King; Nuria; Larry Wilson; Tomas Peter; tovarisch and boilingforest. Henry Kendall was the first Australian poet to draw his inspiration from the life, scenery and traditions of the country. In the beginnings of Australian poetry the names of two other men stand with his—Adam Lindsay Gordon, of English parentage and education, and Charles Harpur, born in Australia a generation earlier than Kendall. Harpur's work, though lacking vitality, shows fitful gleams of poetic fire suggestive of greater achievement had the circumstances of his life been more favourable. Kendall, whose lot was scarcely more fortunate, is a true singer; his songs remain, and are likely long to remain, attractive to poetry lovers. - Summary by from the Biographical Note of Poems of Henry Kendall
