    The book looks to be brand new, better than described! It was shipped quickly, and I'm glad to say it survived being packaged in only a mylar envelope. I would like to see better packaging, but what the hey, it arrived in one piece, so I'll be grateful for that. I would not hesitate to purchase from this Seller again. Thank you, halfpricebooksrecordsmag, for a perfect transaction!

  • A lot of information

    If you are thinking about getting bees, have bees, or just want to know about them, this book is for you. It has a lot of information for a wide range of readers. I have bees and I always have questions about why this or that. So far I have been able to get all my answers from this book. The author covers many ways to do things and then gives his preference. I really enjoy this book.

  • Great information, easy to understand, and entertaining to read

    I'm a first time beekeeper. I have taken classes and I have reference materials. This book is by far the best resource. I would definitely recommend classes but when it comes to books I'd say choose this one. It is easy to find the information you need, the information is spot on, and it's even entertaining to read!

I have have never seen such an angry bunch of bees! I ...

  • My Latest Project To Keep Busy

    I’m still reading and learning at this time. I’m planning to buy a hive and equipment to be ready for next year. I think it’s too late in the season to try and purchase the bees and queen. I don’t want to rush things. My summer job in early 60’s was working for T. W. Burleson’s Honey extracting the honey.
