Description

This book introduces the prospective beekeeper to the basics of bee keeping through easy-to-understand text and numerous colour photos on honey bee biology, bee keeping equipment, management, honey production and processing, as well as disease diagnosis and treatment. In the preface to this book, author Keith Delaplane says of his first book on bee keeping, "Its pages opened to me a golden world of honey bees and bee keeping and guided my stumbling steps that first spring season. My story is but one of thousands who have passed through the door opened by Dadant's little book."
