[Liz · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book was published before the dramatic onset of Colony Collapse Disorder, which has decimated American honeybees, and is even more valuable now. Highly recommended for all gardeners, farmers, and others who are interested in helping to provide habitat for all pollinators, including honeybees.
