This antiquarian book contains a comprehensive guide on beekeeping, with
a wealth of information on setting up and maintaining a healthy and
productive colony. Bee keeping can be an enjoyable and rewarding hobby,
especially in a time when bee populations are decreasing in huge
numbers. Complete with helpful images and easy-to-follow instructions,
this is a text that will be of much value to the existing and
prospective bee-keeper alike, and one that constitutes a worthy addition
to collections of beekeeping literature. Although old, much of the
information contained herein is timeless, and as useful today as it was
when this book was originally published. Antique texts such as this are
increasingly hard to come by and expensive, and it is with this in mind
that we are republishing this text in an affordable, high quality,
modern edition using the original text and artwork.
