This book starts where many books on beekeeping leave off. Each chapter is devoted to a subject of great importance to the beekeeper in getting the best return from his bees. It shows what beekeeping practice and scientific research have found out, all over the world, and gives meticulous directions to the beekeeper based on these findings.
Although the book was originally published thirty-two years ago it is still highly relevant to those who wish to further their apicultural skills and perhaps even increase their profits from beekeeping. It is indeed a book designed to take beekeepers beyond the basics and is a practical and comprehensive manual, international in its coverage and appeal which will always be in demand.
