About this book

"Bee-Keeping by 'The Times' Bee-Keeper" is a vintage handbook on the management of bees and beehives. Written as a result of the popularity of the author's articles published in "The Times" newspaper, this volume aims to outline the basic principles of keeping bees for the amateur or layman. This profusely illustrated handbook is highly recommended for modern readers with a practical interest in bee-keeping, and it is not to be missed by collectors of vintage bee-keeping literature. Contents include: "Introduction", "Bee-keeping Money-making", "Bee-keeping a Source of Enjoyment", "How to Begin Bee-keeping", "The Bee-house, and How to Place It", "Hives and Bee-boxes", "How to Get Bees", "The Inmates of the Hives", "Bee Enemies", "The Bee-master's Letters to "The Times", "Bee Things in General", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this book now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on bee-keeping.
