It’s laid out as a guided tour of the fungal kingdom. Each featured mushroom gets a page of key facts and full-color photos, followed by a template where you record where you found it, the habitat, and its shape, color, and texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe species range from favorite edibles like chicken of the woods and morels to deadly ones like the death cap. Walker covers both because knowing what to avoid matters as much as knowing what to pick. After the main profiles there’s a section of lesser-known “honorable mentions,” then blank templates for everything else you find. QR codes throughout link to extra online resources.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWalker holds a PhD in biochemistry and molecular biology from UC Davis. He’s an award-winning science communicator and a strong advocate for fungal conservation. His enthusiasm comes through on every page, and the result is a journal that teaches while you use it. Over a season, you end up with a personal record of your own foraging grounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDeets\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAuthor: Dr. Gordon Walker\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Clarkson Potter\u003cbr\u003ePublication date: December 16, 2025\u003cbr\u003eLanguage: English\u003cbr\u003eFormat: Flexibound, wire-ring (spiral) binding\u003cbr\u003ePages: 240\u003cbr\u003eISBN-13: 978-1984861818\u003cbr\u003eItem weight: 0.83 pounds (13.29 oz)\u003cbr\u003eDimensions: 4.5 x 1 x 7.5 inches\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Modern Forager","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48118885580956,"sku":null,"price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0051\/8180\/0515\/files\/drfunguysmushroomjournal.jpg?v=1792909170","url":"https:\/\/shop.modern-forager.com\/products\/dr-fun-guys-mushroom-journal-and-foraging-guide","provider":"Modern Forager","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
