Contrary to the general belief, the number of kinds of fungi that are really poisonous is comparatively few. Although there are a great deal of species that can be easily recognised and are quite safe to eat, only the Horse Mushroom (P. Arvensis) and the Common Mushroom (Psalliota Campestris) are commonly eaten in this country. That said, it cannot be emphasised enough that the only safe way to work out whether a fungus is safe to eat is to know its botanical characteristics. Such is the aim of this comprehensive treatise on the subject of mushroom taxonomy, making it the perfect guide for anyone interested in mushroom hunting with the aim of preparing their bounty for consumption. This text contains timeless information is as valuable today as when it was originally published and constitutes a must-read for anyone venturing out into the wonderful world of mushroom-hunting. We are proud to republish Edible and Poisonous Fungi complete with a new prefatory introduction to the subject.
