The Apiary or Bees, Bee-hives and Bee Culture - Being a Familiar Account of the Habits of Bees, and Their Most Improved Methods of Management, with ... the Cottager, Farmer or Scientific Apiarian

Originally published in 1865, this handy book contains a full and detailed guide to the keeping and management of bees. Much of the information will still be of use today and will appeal to those with an interest in the history of the subject. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original artwork and text.
