Bees and the English Country Garden - synonymous - not according to Steve Benbow's experience and that is what this book is - the story of his bekeeping. As someone who has kept bees for over forty years I am well aware that each beekeepers experience is his own and that is what this book is about. That is the value of it - it is not how you should keep bees but how he does in his circumstances and where more bizarre than on top of tower blocks in London. Of course there are faults, like on page 85 where he uses super-seizure for supersedure - or is it a proof reading error. But budding beekeepers please note the reference to back troubles. It's hard enough moving beehives and supers on the level, never mind up and down tower blocks, but then all long time beekeepers are more or less mad!! A very enjoyable read but read it alongside Ted Hooper or R.O.B Manley.Read full review
