We highly encourage
you to consider
adding the following books to your home library:
Entangled Life, How Fungi Make Our Worlds, Change Our Minds & Shape Our Future (Merlin Sheldrake, Random House, 2020) - as Helen MacDonald has written "One of those rare books that can truly change the way you see the world around you."
Mushrooms Demystified (David Arora, Ten Speed Press, 1986) - an incredible resource for the more curious and advanced mushroomer.
Mushrooms of the Redwood Coast, A Comprehensive Guide to the Fungi of Coastal Northern California (Christian Schwarz and Noah Siegel, Ten Speed Press, 2016) - Gary Lincoff is correct is writing that this guide "sets the standard for all future efforts."
Mushrooms, Poisons and Panaceas (Dr. Denis R. Benjamin, W. H. Freeman & Company, 1995) - an invaluable handbook for naturalists, mycologists, physicians - a good read for ordinary folks, too.
Mushrooms of the Pacific Northwest (Steve Trudell & Joe Ammirati, Timber Press Field Guide, 2009) - over 500 color photographs and straight forward keys for identification make this a great resource.
The New Savory Wild Mushroom (Margaret McKenny & Daniel Stuntz, revised by Joseph Ammirati, University of Washington Press, 1987) - not only a wonderful guide to local mushrooms packed with essential information and colorful photographs but also easy to use in the forest.
The Upper Rogue River is an
amazing sight.
