Book Synopsis


Trade Review
"If learning about fungi and foraging in the wild is your thing, you won’t go wrong with this excellent book."---Lee Senior, Towpath Talk
"Jens is well known for his beautiful photographs of fungi and every page here is a demonstration of his skill and artistry. . . . If you are thinking of venturing into the world of eating wild fungi then you could not pick a more informative and well illustrated guide."---Geoffrey Kibby, Field Mycology
"Well laid out from start to finish and is a very easy read. Every page has excellent full colour illustrations to complement an informative text. It has the potential to become the forager's handbook - the only one you might ever need."---David M. Gascoigne, Travels With Birds
"Nicely produced with many excellent colour photographs. It contains a comprehensive introduction, explaining what fungi are, habitats where they are found, how to collect and cook fungi, and legal aspects of collection."---Christopher J. McInerny, The Glasgow Naturalist
""Easily the best book on the market for identification of edible fungi in Britain and Northern Europe.""---Roy Stewart, British Naturalists Association
