Wild Mushroom Identification - Recommended Books for All Skill Levels:

Here are the top five books I highly recommend for wild mushroom identification:

1) Field Guide to Edible Mushrooms of Britain and Europe - Great layout with superb images - Peter Jordan

2) Mushroom Picker's Foolproof Field Guide - A good all round book - Peter Jordan

3) The Mushroom Book - This one is a proper belter with loads and loads of good technical data - Thomas Laessoe

4) Complete Mushroom Book: The Quiet Hunt - A lovely book by a lovely man. Antonio Carluccio

5) The River Cottage Handbook - Mushrooms - Always a favourite from Hugh's fungi specialist friend, John Wright

It is important to have at least 3 books so you can cross reference and cover as many species as possible

Spring is in the air, what about those morels
Well folks, this weekend was a beautiful one down in the south west where I was, like most places - 2011 was a harsh one for wild mushroom foraging due to the lack of rain and indeed, we are now foretold of a drought in many southern parts for 2012. Still, atleast we have the opportunity for Morels
