Rambles in Australia

This little book aims at giving such general impressions of Australia as could be gleaned during a visit lasting from July into September, and including some time spent in each state. The authors in this book tried to convey some idea of the aspect of the country itself, with its brilliant sunshine, great plains, and trackless forests; of the social atmosphere of warm-hearted hospitality; of its economic problems and democratic legislative experiments. The figures and facts quoted in the book are taken from official handbooks and pamphlets.
