Synopsis
This comprehensive guide is designed for easy identification of all mushrooms, both common and important, in Britain and Europe. Describing the characteristic features of the mushroom in detail, it works on the basis that the reader has no formal botanical qualifications. Colour photographs show specimens both close up and at different stages of growth, enabling the reader to identify different species with ease. Other titles in the same series by Roger Phillips include "Garden and Field Weeds", "Native and Common Trees" and "Seashells and Seaweeds". He has won the Andrew Simon Prize for "Wild Food".

Review
Roger Phillips has written the best mushroom book I know: the sublime taxonomic accuracy of his descriptions and photographs, combined with an evangelical and infectious passion for the subject, will make an instant mycophile of anyone who picks it up. (Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall)
A masterpiece of identification. (David Bellamy)
Book Description
