next book please

E.B. Wedmore's Manual of Beekeeping is a worthy addition, it was my first bee book. It is a 1979 reprint of the 1946 revise and therefore pre varroa but I still refer to it regularly.

I am new to this and I have read two books from the National Trust book shops that have got me wanting to become a BEEK. I have ordered a couple from the list but got Bill Turnbull's book the Bad Beekeepers Club and have laughed and cried at the antics.

Lots of fun and ..................

Practical Beekeeping by Clive de Bruyn is a good read

I have heard a lot about this Bill Turnbull book. I've just ordered it. I'm getting quite a bee keeping library Just wish I could read from the computer as I am finding reading Storch really hard.

Bill's book is available as an ebook.

I have dropped a similar hint at home as well, just a single copy will do though!

As a follow up to the Digges Book, Langstroff's book is also an interesting read (If you don't mind getting a bit of a sermon as you read!! - he was a clergyman.)

If you fancy a novel.

You've already read Ted Hooper who would be my first choice.

If you fancy a light novel and want to stay loosely on the bee theme, may I suggest "The Secret Life of Bees" by Sue Monk Kidd. It's an easy read but got a load of awards.
That's where my Black Madonna avatar came from.
