Mushrooms of the Grave - Paperback

by Lily Jo White (Author), Carl E. Miller (Author)

Avid wild mushroom hunters search long and hard through dense forests and state parks for edible and unique fungi, and I'm proud to call myself one of these hunters. During my long journey I've identified countless different species of mushrooms, with each one being unusual in one way or another. However when I stumbled into an old graveyard in Ohio, I realized that it was a paradise of sorts for fungi growth.

This was breaking news to me, but when I began to research the topic further, I realized that mushrooms growing in cemeteries was hardly breaking news- but instead more of a phenomenon. So naturally, out of curiosity, I began to instead research what was causing this phenomenon known as "graveyard mushrooms"- and the results of this study are stunning! This book is illustrated with premium color images.
