books once again accessible, and are published unaltered from the
original University of Minnesota Press editions.
The choicest varieties of mushrooms cannot be cultivated or
commercially grown but are available in abundance to those who take
the trouble to find them. With this book in hand, anyone can, with
confidence, gather and enjoy delicious wild mushrooms without fear
of the poisonous varieties.
"Edible Mushrooms," a new edition of the 1943 classic guide,
"Common Edible Mushrooms," describes in detail more than 60 of the
most abundant and most easily recognized species. Photographs, many
in color, show each species in its natural habitat for easy
identification. Clyde M. Christensen warns against the poisonous
varieties and advises amateur mushroom hunters to become thoroughly
familiar with the most common edible mushrooms and to avoid all
others.
This edition contains new full-color photographs, and new
material on how mushrooms grow and how to identify and collect
them. Christensen has updated the classification to bring
scientific names into agreement with internationally approved
nomenclature but retains the older technical names in parentheses
for easy comparison with other guides. An enlarged section of
recipes provides good ideas for making the most of a mushroom
harvest.
