Book of Bees: And How to Keep Them

Part memoir, part nature journal, and part beekeeping manual, A Book of Bees brings author Sue Hubbell's experiences with beekeeping into a narrative convergence with the rest of her life in a way that is both entertaining and informative. In this era in which bees are increasingly a fleeting and endangered part of the natural world, Hubbell's writing offers practical advice on how to maintain a bee population yourself and a reflection on the importance of nature to human life more broadly. For those interested in learning more about beekeeping as well as about the life of a remarkable woman, this is a great place to start.(This title may contain a sharpie mark on the top or bottom edge and may show mild signs of shelfwear.)
