| Summary, etc |
Beekeeping, or, to give it its technical name, apiculture, has been a common pursuit since at least the Ancient Egyptian period, over 4,000 years ago. Since then, its popularity has soared. Following the Apiarian Exhibition in 1874, there was an upsurge in interest in the activity, and this manual was published as a comprehensive contemporary guide to the subject. Whether you're a seasoned urban beekeeper or a wannabe countryside smallholder, this book will provide you with a fascinating insight into the way that the hobby was carried out in nineteenth-century Britain. -- |c Source other than Library of Congress. |
