A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Présentation de l'éditeur

First Lessons in Beekeeping, first published in 1917 and revised in 1957, remains a classic introduction to the art and science of beekeeping. Written by Camille Pierre Dadant, the son of Charles Dadant (considered one of the fathers of modern beekeeping), the book's chapters include: Beekeeping As An Occupation; How The Colony Is Organized; The Complete Hive; Accessory Equipment; Establishing The Colony; Spring In the Apiary; Summer In The Apiary; Fall And Winter Preparation; Queen Management; Diseases And Enemies; Honey Plants; and Packing Honey For Market. Illustrated with b/w photographs. Although the book lacks descriptions of recent diseases and insect pests of honeybees, the basic principles of apiary management outlined in First Lessons in Beekeeping make the book a invaluable introduction to beekeeping.
