Wild Mushroom Identification - Recommended Books for All Skill Levels:
Every amateur mycologist should have a decent library of books, 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

Hello. Did you manage to track down a fungi expert in the end as my wife and I would also like to go foraging for mushrooms in the West Sussex area.

I recently moved to Brighton and have been looking up mushroom hunting possibilities for a while now. I've never done it before but am a huge foodie and would love to get into it.

Do you know of any mushroom hunting groups in the area or could I join one of your groups?
