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.
