Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Treatise on the Esculent Funguses of England: Containing an Account of Their Classical History, Uses, Characters, Development, Structure, Nutritious Properties, Modes of Cooking and Preserving, Etc
I had two reasons for desiring that this humble perform ance should appear under the sanction of your Lordship's name. Nothing could be more favourable to a Treatise on any department of Natural History, than the approval of one who has been so eminently successful in his cultivation of the same field.
