| Summary | “Toadstools, Mushrooms, Fungi, Edible and Poisonous; One Thousand American Fungi” by Charles McIlvaine is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This detailed guide aims to educate readers on both edible and poisonous fungi found in America, based on extensive personal research and standardized classifications of species. The book serves as a comprehensive tool for mycologists, culinary enthusiasts, and amateur foragers alike. The opening of the book begins with a preface where McIlvaine recounts his journey into the study of fungi, sparked by encounters with various mushrooms in the West Virginia mountains. Through personal experimentation, he learned to differentiate between edible and poisonous varieties, ultimately compiling a wealth of knowledge over two decades. He expresses a desire to share this information, addressing both the culinary possibilities and safety concerns associated with mushroom consumption. The introduction also outlines the absence of a standardized text on American fungi, setting the foundation for the comprehensive descriptions and careful classifications that follow in the main text.
