Great book, not many books on the subject for Alaska.I am a mushroom fanatic of a sort. I also am foresters daughter, I was exposed to wild mushrooms before I could walk. I grew up in a society where wild mushroom collecting was a national past time. So I guess I come here from a bit of a different platform than your average reader. In season, I spend many hour most days canvassing woods, meadows and anywhere els mushrooms grow. I have dozens of mushroom guide books, but we all know one never has enough of them....The simple truth is, no matter how good mushroom book is, none of them, stand alone, exhaust the topic. One simply has to cross reference descriptions, look at different pictures of the same species, type the latin names into google and look some more. I love to identify species the are new to me. But this is mushrooms. They can provide you with a divine meal if you know what you collected, or send you to the hospital or worse if you think you know what you got in that basket. Mushrooms are delicious, exciting and ruthlessly unforgiving. Extensive library is a must.This is a very nice addition.
I have been looking for a book like this for awhile, I have the kindle version. The picture's are awesome, but the text is incomplete.Making it hard to get a complete idea of the mushroom being researched. Pete
I have been looking for a guide to mushrooms of Alaska, and this one is perfect! It is a big help to narrow it down to types that are found in here, and the ones that are edible. The excellent photos help with identification, and there are even yummy recipes. I highly recommend this book if you are interested in harvesting edible mushrooms.
This is an excellent guide to Alaskan mushrooms. The photos are beautiful and help to identify each mushroom which is essential considering that some are poisonous. This concise information packed guide is all you need to become a skilled mushroom hunter in Alaska and take advantage of these freely available nutrition packed edibles.
I think the photos could have been better, especially with the mushrooms that had questionable look a likes. Other than that good book.
