2.0 out of 5 stars
NOT a 2008 revision; Know what you are getting.,
By Rich G (Salem, MA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Hive And The Honeybee: A New Book On Beekeeping To Succeed The Book Langstroth On The Hive And The Honeybee (Hardcover)
It's easy to think this book is a copyright 2008 rewrite to "The Hive and the Honeybee", last revised by the Dadant company in 1992. It is not. Instead this is merely a reprinting of the 1946(!) edition. There are no updates. The 1992 version is the most recent one out there. At $47 I was a tad disappointed--the 1992 revision is sold by Dadant for $36 in hardcover.
I might keep the book as a historical library addition, but the original 1853 edition is available for free on pdf at gutenberg.org. I have seen the 1992 edition and if you're looking for a more useful reference, that is the one to get. I plan to. |
