Mushrooms: How to Identify and Gather Wild Mushrooms and Other Fungi

Es uno de los mejores libros que he visto.

Fantastic text with really in depth analysis of each specific species, a tree chart for anyone to follow and see a good overview of the different species in each type of fungus. No slimes, strictly for fruiting mushrooms only. No medicinal use guidelines are in the text, one needs must know about this topic on their own. I find this to be very fastidious on the behalf of the author, who has done a great amount of research to ensure that the reader can find most edible species of mushrooms that are suitable for use in the wild, and differentiate between those that are poisonous as well. An example is the morel mushroom and the false morel, which the author uses as an example for how to read the keys in the text to avoid confusion and stay safe while wild crafting and gathering mushrooms. Very informative, great work! Would recommend for mycologists and general readers too.

Great images with useful information, came in perfect condition, also mentions if edible or not which makes it perfect for foraging.

High quality photo-album of mushrooms.Was a present for prof. in mycology

My 5 year old son got addicted to mushrooms (no, not to consume them for some weird purposes) after he went on hikes in France to search for morels, and he is a big fan of this book! The poison marks and chef’s hat marks excite him. The size indication using a hand illustration is also perfect for kids. This book keeps him busy, thank you so much!!
