"The Farmers' Guide to Bee Keeping" by H.M. Johnson, originally published in 1872, offers a comprehensive look into the practices of apiculture during the late 19th century. This practical guide provides detailed instructions and advice for farmers looking to incorporate beekeeping into their agricultural operations. From constructing hives to managing bee colonies, and harvesting honey, the book covers essential aspects of beekeeping.
Johnson's work serves as a valuable historical resource, illustrating the methods and understanding of beekeeping at a time when agriculture was undergoing significant changes. Readers interested in the history of agriculture, the natural sciences, or the art of beekeeping will find this guide both informative and insightful.
