About this book

Originally published by a master bee-keeper in 1923, this 3rd edition of ‘Bee-Keeping For All’ was completely revised (in 1929) and brought up to date to reflect at that time the advance in knowledge and practical improvements in all aspects of bee-keeping work that would have usefully concerned the average small hive-owner or those with whom honey and wax production formed only one activity among many areas of their business. As a lifelong bee-keeper Tickner Edwardes shares his extensive practical understanding and in-depth knowledge of apiculture with details of how to set up and manage and develop a successful apiary and how to avoid the many potential problems that could be encountered. Also, you will find it well worth checking out the ebook of ‘Bee-Keeping For All’ to view the numerous detailed plans and graphics that accompany and compliment the text of this book. A similar book (‘Bee-Keeping Do’s and Dont’s’) by Tickner Edwardes that compliments this publication is also available in ebook and audiobook formats. - Summary by Steve C
