The Joys of Beekeeping – 2012

Compiled from a series of essays, many previously published in the author’s “Bee Talk” column in Gleanings in Bee Culture. While Richard Taylor does offer relevant information for new/novice beekeepers, he writes much more than a how-to manual: Taylor philosophizes on the beauty in honey production, the joy in tending bees, and the inspiration in beholding a swarm. A tribute to the joy and happiness in apiculture. Illustrated by Meri Shardin.
