Synopsis
The Beekeeper's Bible is as much an ultimate guide to the practical essentials of beekeeping as it is a beautiful almanac to be read from cover to cover, from ecologist Richard A. Jones and writer Sharon Sweeney-Lynch. Part history book, part handbook, and part cookbook, this illustrated tome covers every facet of the ancient hobby of beekeeping, from how to manage hives safely to harvesting one's own honey, and ideas for how to use honey and beeswax. Detailed instructions for making candles, furniture polish, beauty products, and nearly 100 honey-themed recipes are included. Lushly illustrated with how-to photography and unique etchings, any backyard enthusiast or gardener can confidently dive into beekeeping with this book in hand (or daydream about harvesting their own honey while relaxing in the comfort of an armchair). "A glorious invitation into the depths of the honeybee hive." -- Chicago Tribune "Elegant, information-packed." -- Better Homes & Gardens' Country Gardens "Jones and Sweeney-Lynch explain the science and society of bees in clear, accessible language. And the recipes are admirably useful: honey scones, honey soap, honey hangover cures." -- New York Times, The Beekeeper's Bible is as much an ultimate guide to the practical essentials of beekeeping as it is a beautiful almanac to be read from cover to cover.

Praise for The Beekeeper's Bible "Jones and Sweeney-Lynch explain the science and society of bees in clear, accessible language. And the recipes are admirably useful: honey scones, honey soap, honey hangover cures. 'Oh, stuff and fluff, ' as Pooh might say. Dip a paw into this richly satisfying volume and you won't have to do stoutness exercises." - The New York Times "Lip-smackin' throughout, The Beekeeper's Bible is, at its heart, a glorious invitation into the depths of the honeybee hive." -- Chicago Tribune "An elegant, information-packed addition to the library of the most serious beekeeper." -- Better Homes & Gardens Country Gardens "An amazing compendium of information, lore, facts, tips, techniques, and benefits of having bees in your life--whether you choose to keep a hive yourself, enjoy the by-products, or just appreciate these wonderful creatures for all that they contribute to our human ecosystem." --About.com

    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.

    Item was exactly as described. Seller did an outstanding job of packing and the cabinet arrived with no damage whatsoever. Shipping was delayed some due to weather - not the seller's fault. Communication was great as well. Would definitely purchase from this seller again!

    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.
