Variations on a Beehive

Trish Nelson is to be commended on compiling this brilliant book. Whether you are happy with the type of hive and style of management you use, if you are trying to decide which is best suited to your particular situation and needs, or if you are just plain curious, this book will answer all of your questions and satisfy your inquisitiveness. The range and depth of experience contained between the pages is phenomenal. If, like me, you are addicted to collecting and reading books about beekeeping, bees and associated subjects, you will certainly need to add this one to your shelf. I am now finding that I am becoming more selective about which books I keep and which ones to cull due to lack of space. This one is definitely a keeper!
