Description First published in 1878, Mrs Lance Rawsons The Queensland Cookery and Poultry Book is a time-capsule of colonial Australian culinary lore. Aside from the delicious recipes using normal ingredients and the informative notes on bacon curing and preserving, Mrs Rawsons book is unique in that it lists the numerous ways Queenslands native wildlife and flora could be incorporated into western style dishes from roasts through to pies and curries. Wallaby, fruit pigeon, flying fox, native wood ducks, parrots and even goannas (Mrs Rawson calls them iguanas) ended up in the oven or in the pot. This wasnt because the early settlers wanted to decimate the local wildlife, but rather it was done out of necessity. If you didnt shoot or snare a local furred, feathered or scaly creature, then you and your family didnt eat. There were no supermarkets or butchers shops on the wild Queensland Frontier of the 1800s. A pleasant surprise at the end of the book is a whole section on poultry-keeping - good, old fashioned chicken lore.
