Download or read book Studies of American Fungi Mushrooms written by George Francis Atkinson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-13 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies of American Fungi Mushrooms: Edible, Poisonous, Etc Value of Form and Characters - The different kinds of mushrooms vary in form. Some are quite strikingly different from others, so that no one would have difficulty in recognizing the difference in shape. For example, an umbrella-shaped mushroom like the one shown in Fig. I or 81 is easily distinguished from a shelving one like that in Fig. 9 or 188. But in many cases different species vary only slightly in form, so that it becomes a more or less difficult matter to distinguish them. In those plants (for the mushroom is a plant) where the different kinds are nearly alike in form, there are other characters than mere general form which enable one to tell them apart. These, it is true, require close observation on our part, as well as some experience in judging of the value of such characters the same habit of observa tion and discrimination we apply to everyday affairs and to all departments of knowledge. But so few people give their attention to the discrimination of these plants that few know the value of their characters, or can even recognize them.

Download or read book The Mushroom Edible and Otherwise Its Habitat and Its Time of Growth written by Miron Elisha Hard and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 630 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mushroom, Edible and Otherwise, Its Habitat and Its Time of Growth: With Photographic Illustrations of Nearly All the Common Species I would agree with those who might maintain that no Introduction is needed for this book on mushrooms. Nevertheless a word may not be out of place for the inception of the work is out of the ordinary. Mr. Hard did not decide that a book on this subject was needed and then set about studying these interesting plants. He has observed them, collected them, induced many friends to join in eating those which proved to be palatable and delicious - really meddled for years with the various kinds which are edible and otherwise, and then recently he has decided to publish a book on his favorite subject. The interesting occupation of photographing the mushrooms and the toadstools doubtless has contributed largely to the determination culminating in the materialization of the treatise. If I have correctly apprehended the origin and the contributing causes, we would expect this book to be different from the other books on mushrooms - not of course in scope and purpose; but the instruction and suggestions given, the descriptions and general remarks offered, the wide range of forms depicted in word and picture, the whole make up of the book in fact, will appeal to the people at large rather than the college student in particular. The author does not write for the specially educated few, but for the mass of intelligent people - those who read and study, but who observe more; those who are inclined to commune with nature as she displays herself in the glens and glades, in the fields and forests, and who spend little, if any, time chasing the forms or sketching the tissues that may be seen on the narrow stage of a compound microscope. The book then is for the beginner, and for all beginners; the college student will find that this is the guide to use when he is ready to begin studying the mushrooms; the teachers in the schools should all begin to study mushrooms now, and for the purpose they will find this book advantageous; the people who see mushrooms often but do not know them may find here a book that really is a help. We might wish for color photography when the subject is a delicately tinted mushroom; but if with it we should lose detail in structure then the wish would be renounced. The colors can be, approximately, described, often not so the characteristic markings, shapes and forms. The half-tones from the photographs will, we anticipate, prove a valuable feature of the book, especially if the plants be most carefully examined before turning to the pictures. For half an hour the pages may be turned and the illustrations enjoyed. That, however, would give one no real knowledge of mushrooms. If such use only is made of the pictures, better had they never been prepared by Mr. Hard and his friends.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mushrooms and Other Common Fungi To judge from the statements of early authors, for many centuries Wild mushrooms have been eagerly collected and eaten, especially in Germany, France, and Italy. Perhaps the only recorded voice of absolute protest came from the' ancient Hindus, Who considered those Who ate mushrooms, Whether springing from the ground or growing on a tree, fully equal in guilt to the slayers of Brahmins. Although early history records the use of mushrooms and the high esteem in Which they Were held by the ancients, it is true that their nutritive value has been greatly exaggerated and is not high and that they are not as life sustaining as meat, in spite of the frequent assertions of enthusiastic mycophagists to the contrary.

Download or read book Edible and Poisonous Mushrooms written by William Alphonso Murrill and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-12 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Edible and Poisonous Mushrooms: A Descriptive Handbook to Accompany the Author's Colored Chart of Edible and Poisonous Mushrooms The popular and widespread interest in mushrooms of all kinds is almost phenomenal. This is due to their beauty of form and color and the supposed mystery surrounding their origin and growth, as well as to the use of certain kinds for food. Their nutritive value is not great, being about equal to that of cabbage, but they afford variety in flavor and add greatly to the relish for other foods. Mushroom eating is much more common in Europe than in this country. The struggle for existence is greater there, and the edible and poisonous varieties are better known by all classes of people. In China, it is almost impossible for a botanist to get specimens on account of the thorough manner in which all wild food is collected by the natives.
