    OK for new bee keepers only.

    It is a very good book for beginner bee keepers that do know nothing about bees. But as a new beekeeper starting to know more, this book becomes useless and a more detailed bee keeper book is needed. I would recommend this book for new bee keepers , but not to anyone that know the basics of bee keeping already.

    Really was interested in keeping bees. but didn't have a clue where to start. This book takes you step by step, answers all the questions you thought were to stupid to ask, and covers it all. Best book I have read on the subject.
