One recommendation if you struggle to get started with fungi keys, John.
An Initial Guide to the Identification of Mushrooms and Toadstools by Paul Nichol. Available from Amazon and other outlets.
A simple user friendly easy to follow set of keys. I was getting nowhere with the keys in my large fungi encyclopaediac book but this little publication usually gets me to the correct family. Thereafter you need something more detailed.
It was recommended when I took a fungi identification course.
