If you have no joy it is being re-released in July for £8.99. I doubt you'll find many edible mushrooms between now and then anyway
Mushroom Picker's foolproof guide
Having said that it looks like WHSmiths have it for £6.29

If you call any of the web-sites advertising you'll find there is no stock without indication of when they'll be back in print.
The info regarding re-print in July is useful, just before my birthday so I know what I'll be getting....along with a nice porchini knife!
As far as not finding any edible mushrooms before July, lasy year I had loads of fairy ring champignons, dozens of horse mushrooms and loads of birch boletes to name but a few before summer arrived...Mr. Optimism?

I would hesitate to describe any guide to edible fungi as foolproof. There are many fools out there, and their follies are assiduously worked at, remarkably ingenious, and surprisingly innovative.

I've been expecting the first downsizer fungi poisoning for some time---luckily I've been wrong so far.

Either that or the people who read the advice here and got it wrong, for some reason or other never logged in again to complain...
