Title: Hands down, the best mushroom field guide you can get
Review: This is simply the coolest field guide I own. I own several mushroom field guides and many plant guides, and this one is by far the easiest and most fun to use. While it is a field guide for Western Mushrooms, and that's where it will work best, it is also useful on the east coast. The key, descriptions, and photos are great, and the introduction has great info for beginners. Unlike many mushroom field guides, the author doesn't see condescending or have numerous disclaimers due to fear of lawsuits.It is not as comprehensive as some other guides, and a serious mushroom hunter will probably want some other ones as well, this book is the best to start with. It helps you learn some of the most common edible mushrooms, and gives you a good foundation to learn other ones. I sometimes bring several field guides with me, and I usually check this one first.
