The Bee Book
Bees are a marvel of nature and vital to human existence. The Bee Book is a great introduction to bees and beekeeping and celebrates the wonder of bees in nature, in our gardens and in the hive.

Marvel at the industry and intelligence of bees, the turbulent life of a queen and the remarkable properties of honey.
