I love a sunburnt country, A land of sweeping plains, Of ragged mountain ranges, Of droughts and flooding rains. I love her far horizons, I love her jewel-sea, Her beauty and her terror The wide brown land for me! Dorothea MacKellar's iconic poem, beautifully illustrated by Andrew McLean, depicts Australia in all its contrasts.
