A Book of Bees Paperback - 1998
by Sue Hubbell
From the author of the widely acclaimed A Country Year comes another elegant and appealing book about the world of the beekeeper and what he or she must do in each of the four seasons. 28 illustrations.
Summary
"The real masterwork that Sue Hubbell has created is her life," David Quammen wrote in the New York Times. This book is, like its author, a unique achievement. Weaving a vivid portrait of her own life and her bees' lives through the seasons, Hubbell writes "about bees to be sure, but also about other things: the important difference between loneliness and solitude . . . the accommodating of oneself to nature" (Philadelphia Inquirer).
