Simon & Schuster's Guide to Mushrooms (Nature Guide Series)

It's a thick and small size guidebook. Very convenient to hold in your hands. The only thing I was surprised is that the cover of the book was different from what is showing on the website. The pictures are in color and provide descriptive information about so many mushrooms. I got it for my 6 year old son. He went through every page many times and every day. He absolutely loves it! The book is in very good condition. The delivery took 11 days. The price is very affordable.

The best book for visuals of mushrooms!!!

This book is literally packed with hundreds of different mushrooms and fungi. If you have a love for mushrooms this is a wonderful read! The pictures are beautiful.

I have given this book to several new converts to mushrooms. No other has such a good introduction to every aspect.

A good addition to your library of nature guides, but probably not the best for the newby. Extremely technical. Lots of detail. Pretty comprehensive. There are 400 full-color illustrations, which is nice, but the photography isn't great--not great resolution; the photos appear to be something from the 60's or 70's, not the current digital photos. The index contains no common names, so if you're trying to see what a Chicken of the Woods looks like, for instance, good luck finding it. Not all entries even include common names in the descriptions. Beginners might never find something.

Love how illustrated and detailed this book is

My husband is an avid mushroom hunter. Absolutely loves this book.

Outstanding shipping speed and an excellent quality book.
