A Tiny Lesson in Bee Culture is an excerpt from L.L. Langstroth's Hive and The Honey-Bee: The Classic Beekeeper's Manual. Penn State Live (website), June 10, 2010, "Entomology graduate fellowship to honor apiarist Lorenzo L. Langstroth": The Rev. Lorenzo L. Langstroth was a Philadelphia-born apiarist, clergyman and teacher who in 1851 revolutionized the beekeeping industry in the United States with the invention of a new beehive. His top-opened, movable-frame structure effectively used what he called 'bee space' and allowed the beekeeper to easily inspect and manage the hive in a way that previously had not been possible without disturbing the bees and their home. The Langstroth Hive continues to be the standard used by beekeepers all over the world. "He also published several books on practical hive management, beginning with Langstroth's Hive and The Honey-bee, The Classic Beekeeper's Manual in 1853, which is still in print." Annie Herlocker: "A long fascination in beekeeping led me to create this diminutive accordion."
