Edible Mushrooms

Bursting with quality photos and great information, achieving the «balance between caution and adventure that a forager needs», this book is an absolute must for foragers. Put the book in your rucksack, head outside, and let it guide you on safe, fun, mind-, heart-, and stomach-expanding fungal adventures.– Fergus Drennan aka Fergus the Forager This is the most comprehensive guide to foraging for wild mushrooms in UK and Northern Europe. With a special pictorial index, it is perfect for both beginners and experienced foragers. It describes the best tasting fungi, where to find them and when they are at their best; how to distinguish the edible species from the poisonous lookalikes; when to leave an edible mushroom alone so the species can survive.
