The Gold og the Forest

The Gold of the Forest is a book out of the ordinary – a beautiful, richly illustrated and highly useful guide to the world of edible mushrooms.

Whether you are a beginner or an experienced forager, you will find the joy of foraging in this book.

The book is divided into types of mushrooms and what the mushrooms look like under the hat – a method that makes it easier to find your way around. You will learn how to safely recognize edible mushrooms, where to find them, and not least – how to best prepare them.

In this book you will find images showing over 50 species in different sizes, angles and stages of development, everything from chanterelles and funnel chanterelles to spiny mushrooms, porcini mushrooms and blue knight’s hat, with detailed descriptions, risk of confusion and taste tips.

In addition, The Gold of the Forest offers a close and personal story about the joys of mushroom hunting– about walks in the woods and the moments when you find “the secret places”. This is a book that conveys both knowledge and love for nature, and that inspires you to use your senses, slow down – and perhaps see the forest with new eyes.
