By David Arora Over 200 edible and poisonous mushrooms are depicted with simple checklists of their identifying features, as author David Arora celebrates the fun in fungi with the same engaging blend of wit and wisdom, fact and fancy, that has made his comprehensive guide, Mushrooms Demystified the mushroom hunter’s bible. This pocket-sized guide is much easier to take into the field, and even contains page references for Mushrooms Demystified in the entries. All the content is original though, including new full-color pictures and entertaining sidebar stories from mushroom collectors that make you feel like you are on a weekend outing with the local mushroom hunting club. As with all publications on wild edibles, we at the Northwest Nature Shop encourage you to deeply study all that goes into this craft before eating anything – from the fungi to the location to your own health. Always get a second opinion before you eat anything and go forward with a dose of caution. Happy harvesting!
