| Publisher Description: 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. |
