A comprehensive guide to the mushrooms and other fungi of North America. The author has spent years in field research, studying and photographing thousands of specimens and even identifying a previously unknown variety that is now named after him. Each of the photographs are taken in controlled studio light, revealing the characteristic physical aspects and a cross section of every mushroom. The text offers information on where and when to find each mushroom, and how to make a positive identification. A useful guide for both beginners and serious mycologists.
