Synopsis
One of the few people of his time who actually made a living from bees, C. C. Miller made beekeeping his sole business, beginning as a hobby in 1861 and continuing until his death in 1920, following a long and distinguished career that produced many articles and books on the subject. This volume, long a classic within the beekeeping community, is a practical, yet endlessly charming handbook on all aspects of a romantic and arcane pursuit. Offering advice, observations, and information gleaned from more than a half-century of beekeeping, it covers, among many other topics, the importance of keeping hives clean and well-ventilated, mending combs, maintaining proper hive temperatures, winter storage, the Queen's nursery, harvesting honey, plus a special section of recipes that range from honey cake to salves for frostbite. Written by a major figure in apiculture history, this volume remains a standard text on hive management and the practices and principles of efficient, effective beekeeping., Practical, endlessly charming handbook on all aspects of this romantic, arcane pursuit offers advice, observations, and information on hive management and the practices and principles of efficient, effective apiculture. 111 illustrations., Long a classic within the beekeeping community, this book is one of the greatest works on the ancient art and science of beekeeping. A practical, yet endlessly charming handbook on all aspects of this romantic, arcane pursuit, it offers advice, observations, and information gleaned from a half-century of beekeeping. 111 illustrations.

    Item came as described and pictured; sealed new in packaging. Item also came within the expected time frame. Thus, I am happy with my purchase. This was great deal I am happy I got to partake in. Item shipped in a large box without padding so this seller may not be an ideal choice for inbox doll collectors, but is perfect if you're an out of box collector like I am. I would absolutely consider buying from this seller again.

    item arrived new in packaging as described. I thought the item could have been a little better protected with more of a shipping box, but apparently it was fine because the item arrived without a scratch.
