    Very old set of books, packed well and arrived in as identical condition as they were in all the photos (quite good given their age— 123 years old!) I couldn’t ask for anything better.

    Bee keeper bible

    Very detailed but understandable. Bought it for my son who has 9 hives. He is very schooled in bees but he said he learns something new each time he reads it.
