An expose of two cover-ups: one the death of a swagman by a billabong; the other, a torrid affair between Banjo Paterson and his fiancee's best friend, and how the two events come together in Australia's best-loved national song. The most well researched history of Waltzing Matilda ever undertaken. Written at a pivotal time in Australian history, Waltzing Matilda is as important to Australian culture as the Eureka Stockade and the legend of Ned Kelly.
