3.0 out of 5 stars
OK, but not sufficient by itself for a beginning beekeeper.,
By tceisele@mtu.edu (Houghton, Michigan, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Beekeeping (Complete Pet Owner's Manuals) (Paperback)
This book has the advantage of a number of full-color photographs, and is interesting in that it describes how bees are apparently kept in Europe. However, it is quite brief, and a beginning beekeeper would not be able to start succesfully with only the information in this book. It should be considered to be a supplement to other texts.

Outstanding photography and graphics, good price,
By A Customer
This review is from: Beekeeping (Complete Pet Owner's Manuals) (Paperback)
This little book is my "giveaway" to people interested in getting started in bees. It's not a complete guide by any means, but gives someone interested a basic overview. It has outstanding photos and graphics on the beekeeper's year. Has a European slant many may not like, but I found quite interesting. Great price for size and content.

A poor attempt at a beekeeping book,
By steve mauldin (frisco, tx United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Beekeeping (Complete Pet Owner's Manuals) (Paperback)
What a title "Beekeeping: A Practical Guide for the Novice Beekeeper Buying Bees, Management, Rearing, Honey Production". Too bad that the title was almost half the length of the book. This book has a very european look and feel to the instructions and hive structures mentioned. I would not recommend this book to anyone interested in beekeeping with the one exception of, if you are writing a book on beekeeping use it as a guide on how not to write one.
