Summary: | Philip E. Muskett, former Surgeon Superintendent to the NSW government, wrote in 1893: " ... our people live in direct opposition to their semi-tropical environment ... the consumption of butcher's meat and tea is enormously in excess of any common sense requirements .." The Art of Living in Australia offers advice for healthy living. In an effort to promote better eating-habits, Muskett presents a carefully researched picture of climate; of the history of cookery instruction in schools; of the value of salads; of problems and methods of management, current in 1893, in the fishing, oyster growing.
