About this product
Product Information
With more than 700 mushrooms detailed with color photographs and descriptive text, this is the most comprehensive photographic field guide to the mushrooms of North America. The 762 full-color identification photographs show the mushrooms as they appear in natural habitats. Organized visually, the book groups all mushrooms by color and shape to make identification simple and accurate in the field, while the text account for each species includes a detailed physical description, information on edibility, season, habitat, range, look-alikes, alternative names, and facts on edible and poisonous species, uses, and folklore. A supplementary section on cooking and eating wild mushrooms, and illustrations identifying the parts of a mushroom, round out this essential guide.Product Identifiers

The amateur mushroom fanatics bible
This book is a great resource for the amateur mushroom enthusiast. A compact book easy to use with great photos. I'm happy with my mushroom bible. (The cover of the book feels durable and is flexible enough to manage while "on the hunt" for these treasures.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Different type of guide, but thorough.
It's a comprehensive book, covering hundreds of species. That said, it's quite different than other guides, with photos all together toward the front of the book, and references to descriptions in the later section. I didn't deduct a point for the inconvenience and extra trouble it takes to look things up because it covers so many types of mushrooms, and does so for an incredibly inexpensive price. I'd say it takes getting used to, but well worth the money.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Useful Mushroom Guide
Helpful guide to mushrooms. Lots of full-color photographs. One feature I don't like is that the photographs are in one section of the book and the written information is in another, so the reader has to flip back and forth between the two sections. I suppose this is helpful in the logistics of printing the book, but it takes some getting used to for the reader. Otherwise, the books seems good. But I'm no mushroom expert. Readers with aging eyes should be aware that the type size runs on the small side. The copy I bought was used and in very good condition. And it came quickly--kudos to the seller.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

This is the best book on mushrooms I've seen.
I have several books on mushrooms and this is the best book I've seen. It covers any mushroom I'm likely to see but yet the book is small enough to carry with me. It is a soft cover but not a paperback. It looks durable. It is well organized so it doesn't take long to look up a mushroom. The pictures are great. I highly recommend it.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
