MAD RIVER PRESS

Mad River Press (MRP) is a small publishing company, started in 1973 by three biology professors at Humboldt State University who wished to make available an inexpensive, but quality means of publication. On October 15, 1973, MRP received its first check for our first book: How to Identify Mushrooms to Genus I: Macroscopic Features the format of which was 8.5 X 11", typed instead of typeset, and with a stapled binding... We operate on a small scale and keep overhead expenses to a minimum so as to keep book prices as low as possible. As a publisher, we provide the services of bookmaking, advertising and distribution... The Mad River Press publishes and sells Natural History Books and specializes in books on the systematics and biology of fungi, particularly mushrooms. We have extensive lists of books on lichens, algae, plants, animals, insects, fariy shrimps and insects.
