The Oracle
By Andrew Barton 'Banjo' Paterson

Narrated by Denis Daly

Solicitor, journalist, poet and war veteran, Andrew Barton Paterson is today best known for his colourful and jingoistic verse, in particular The Man from Snowy River.

This amusing portrait of a pompous but incompetent racing tout is taken from Three Elephant Power and Other Stories, a collection of short stories and essays.
