5 out of 5 stars
Excellent for mushroom reference!
A must have for serious study. I like this version for ALL the content, details, pictures, & portable size. It's a bit large to carry in my daily foraging pack (see picture), but small enough that it will easily be back at the car for further research after a day's outing if needed. The 1st 25% ish is pictures (see pictures), the remainder is all the accompanying details (see picture). Overall a great book to have to help learn this fascinating world of mycology.

This, like other Audubon Field Guides, is compact *700 pages plus), packed with information and beautiful photos. It is well-bound on high quality stock. I bought for our oldest daughter who has an interest in mycology. I can also give a five star review for the Trees of North America volume and the Rocks and Minerals book. I find myself referencing these several times a week. The Mushrooms book has been out of print , I think, and was selling for outrageous prices on both Amazon and eBay. Glad to see it's back!

These guides are great! Good pics, nicely organized, reputable info, small enough to carry but big enough to be useful. I like that the cover is flexible, so it's less likely to get damaged than a hardcover book.

This is such an incredibly beautiful book!!! And the size is honestly perfect. The pages remind me of a Bible because of how thin and dainty they are(not the illustrated pages the explanation ones) but man this is a well made book! Also the illustrated pages are so detailed and gorgeous. Very happy with my purchase!

My book came in perfect condition and is every bit what was expected. The National Audubon is beautifully done! It was nearly half the book in stunning pictures and the other half in easy descriptions of details.
Thank you AMAZON for the prompt delivery and condition, and selling this excellent book!
