Excerpt from Some Edible and Poisonous Fungi
In the present paper an attempt is made to present, in as Simple a manner as the subject permits, the characteristics of a few of our most common fungi, together with notes on poisonous species which might be mistaken for the edible by those who have not studied fungi. It may be called a first lesson in distinguishing edible and poisonous fungi, and is not intended as a guide to those who are to a certain extent already familiar with the subject, but merely as a primer for those who do not recognize even our commonest species, but who desire to enroll themselves among the increasing ranks of fungus eat ers, or, to use a rather high-sounding word, mycophagists.
