A very helpful book (2008-09-04)

this is a very helpful book for especially beginners, with big colourfull pictures of the most common fungi-edible and poisonous aroud us. very easy to use, clear, lots of hints and also recipes. great.

A great help to identification. (2007-10-04)

What a pleasure to use and so helpfull, information is key with mushrooms, if your not sure, dont touch it!I find best to look out for a selection of specific and easily recognised and confirmed species, such as sulphur polypore, giant puffball, cep (penny bun) also Tree ears can be in abundance but dont fry them!! they jump about!use them for sauces.Happy Hunting!

Knowing what to look for... (2004-09-23)

In picking mushrooms, there are 2 approaches:

- show the good and the bad and have copious notes to explain the two- show only the good and advise the picker to ignore or discard anything that doesn't appear in the book.

Jordan follows the latter and safe as it is, there is always something that makes you want to know about the Dark Side of mycology, just in case you should wander into its temple one day...

Easy recipes, sound advice, safe approach.
