Inhaltsangabe

The Man from Snowy River by A. B. Paterson is a poem first published in 1890. It centers on a daring horseback pursuit through the Australian mountain ranges, undertaken to recapture the colt of a prizewinning racehorse that has found its way to live among wild brumbies. The chase takes a critical turn when the riders reach a treacherous slope; most abandon the pursuit, but one young man continues. He fearlessly drives his small horse down the dangerous descent, distinguishing himself through determination and skill.
