This large hardback is full of stunning mushroom ID photos and species information. Makes a great coffee table book! Over 1,000 full color photos, all shot in controlled studio light illustrating the cap, stem, gills, spines, and cross section of each mushroom featured.

From the back cover:

In stunning photographs and through meticulous textual descriptions, naturalist and photographer Roger Phillips unearths the mushrooms and other fungi of North America in all their fascinating variety.

This book is a valuable reference for any mushroomer and makes an excellent gift for any mushroom lover. There are many "lesser" ID books out there, trust us... this is not one of them!
