Publisher - Alfred A. Knopf, New York - 1981

Good and useful book with 925 pages. Pictures are good high quality in front of book with the descriptions in the back. Index references both common names and Latin names. Pictures are in arranged according to the features you see in the field -- shape and color. The color plates are divided into 14 groups:

To help you find the correct group a table of silhouettes precedes the color plates. Each group is represented by a silhouette of a typical member of the group on the left side of the table. On the right, you will find the silhouettes of mushrooms found within that group. The representative silhouette for each group is repeated as a thumb tab at the left edge of each double page of the color plates, providing a quick and convenient index to the color section.
