“Of all the nations in the world to-day Australia is probably the most fortunate.  Rich in mineral wealth and with a soil that produces the fruits of the earth in abundance… possessing no racial or border problems… unscarred by war but with a proud record in every field of human endeavour… its future as a bulwark in the British Empire seems assured for many years to come.  It is appropriate then to review in these pages some of the highlights of this great island continent.  Primarily an album for mounting the beautiful picture cards that are now being included in Weetbix and Granose Breakfast Biscuits, Bixies Whole Wheat Flakes, Sanitarium Corn Flakes, San-Bran and Cerix Puffed Wheat, it also offers an interesting collection of facts concerning this fascinating and fortunate land…”
