New Book on History of Bees and Beekeeping
« on: March 31, 2005, 04:05:57 pm »
I was in Barnes&Noble yesterday and happened for some reason to glance at the "New Non-Fiction" Table where I found "Robbing the Bees" by Holley Bishop.  

It's a new book on history of bees and beekeeping interspersed with a personal story of a commercial beekeeper in Florida.  

I've been reading it since yesterday, and I can say, it's quite well done, not dry, and moves along keeping the reader interested. I highly recommend it.
