Book synopsis

This antique text contains a detailed guide to bee-keeping, and will appeal to the more advanced beekeeper as well as to the novice. This book is divided into three parts: the first guides the novice from the time when he first decides to take up the craft until the end of his first season; the second deals in detail with the year's work in the apiary, showing how the various problems that confront the bee-keeper in the second and subsequent years should be met; whilst the third, in addition to dealing with diseases and other miscellaneous subjects, contains the formulae and other useful information which more advanced bee-keepers will find of interest. The chapters of this book include: 'The Honey-Bee', 'Natural History', 'The Inhabitants of the Hive', 'The Queen', 'The Workers', 'The Drones', 'Parthenogenesis', 'Metamorphosis', 'Bees and Honey', 'Hives', 'Bee-Keeping in Antiquity', 'The Bee Space', 'British Types', 'The National Hive', 'American Hives', 'Frame Sizes', 'Races of Bees', etcetera. This antique text is being republished here with a new introduction on bee keeping.
