Still afraid to hunt my own mushrooms
Very detailed descriptions of many mushrooms, but this left me still very confused as to identification of edible and non-edible varieties.
Grows on you
comprehensive guide to fungus
Lots of color photos on every page
Exactly what I wanted. Ordered 3 other mushroom books for foraging and identification. None of them had color pictures or the weight as this one. It is colored pencil but just beautifully done and we are very excited to take this to the park with us!!!
Not well executed
I have a lot of mushroom and other field guides. This one is not well laid out (the digital version, anyway). It's not clear which illustrations go with what text. Hard to use.
Great pictures and full of information
An enjoyable read with large photos as illustrations and recipes.
