Book
Mushroom miscellany / Patrick Harding.
Mushroom collecting is becoming increasingly popular, and while a comprehensive identification guide is essential, the folklore, facts and fables, recipes and stories that have accumulated since ancient times create part of the charm of these strange organisms. Oddly, these facts have never been compiled in one book. This is a compilation of all of these fascinating biological facts. It covers their biology, folklore, uses and history including: a mushroom holds the record for the largest spreading single organism covering nearly 3km squared; there is a widespread belief that mushrooms arise from falling stars; tree moss lichen is found in most modern perfumes; the Neolithic Ice-Man found in Europe in 1990 carried two types of fungus; one for use as tinder, but another mounted on a leather thong, whose use remains unknown. Additionally, the book features the most widely used recipes for cooking mushrooms from around the world.
