Mushrooms of America, Edible and Poisonous
by Julius A. Palmer
Publisher: L. Prang & Co 1885
ISBN/ASIN: 1120329671
Description:
These charts are prepared for popular use, rather than for students of botanical science; all technical terms are, therefore, as far as possible, avoided. The identification of species is a safe guide, and is the only means of knowing what mushrooms should be eaten, and what varieties of fungus should be rejected.
