5 out of 5 stars Buy it you won't need another book on bees   May 27, 2005
10 out of 13 found this review helpful

However, one of my beekeeping friends who has been keeping bees for some 20 plus years, refers to this book as his bible, he frequently disagrees with it, for example he frowns on the process of dividing the brood to increase the laying rate of the queen and thus expand the colony.

Something you just have to live with I suppose.


5 out of 5 stars Simply the Best Bee Keeping Book   August 4, 2008

It is the Bible as far as I am concerned. Critically, in places it shows its age, but generally you will not get a better book on Bee Keeping.


5 out of 5 stars So far, excellent!   July 12, 2008

Nicely written and highly informative by someone who evidently has an immense amount of experience and knowledge and who is happy to share it without ever becoming dogmatic.

I am a beginner to be-keeping and this book is giving me a great combination of directly applicable advice and an overview of how it all works together.



4 out of 5 stars Invaluable for the beginner and intermediate bee keeper   December 31, 1998

This book has guided me in my first three years of bee keeping, helping me in establishing two out apiaries, and currently seven colonies at my home apiary. It is a great reference book plumped out with anedotes, useful alongside advice from fellow beekeepers. Peter Thomas, Near Coleford, Glos., UK


4 out of 5 stars A well thought out, complete guide to beekeeping   August 22, 1999
23 out of 24 found this review helpful

Known as the 'bee keepers bible' this book covers a wide range of topics from honey bee biology to sucessfully managing an entire apiary. A useful guide for existing bee keepers but probably a little complex for the beginner.
