A compact, succinct, yet thorough and comprehensive account of beekeeping and bees. Covering a wide array of topics from the roles of honeybees in biology and ecology to accounts of bees in history and folklore, Bees and Beekeeping provides the reader with a true gamut of apiological information. Bees, experts in architecture, engineering, and communication, have been long revered as sacred symbols of the sun, and bridges between Earth and the heavens. In addition to a focus on the symbolism of bees, Francis-Baker guides the reader through the basics of beekeeping and provides advice on how we might work to save our honeybee population in the wake of a quickly changing climate.
