I wouldn't have bought this book because it was originally published in the UK and the authors are European and I'd have assumed the mushrooms would be very different from those in Western Canada. But my brother, who is an avid wild mushroom picker, gave me the book for Christmas and tells me that the mushrooms that grow here (especially in Northern Alberta) are similar or the same as many of to those in Europe.
Like all books by DK, the book has great photos and includes detailed picking, cleaning, preserving and cooking information. Looks like it will be a very helpful resource.
