Originally published in 1879, this fascinating work is thoroughly
recommended for inclusion on the bookshelf of all Bee enthusiasts. With
chapters on The history of bee keeping, Natural swarming, Artifical
swarming and the diseases and enemies of bee's as well as many more this
works contains much information that is still useful and practical
today. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the
1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive.
