5.0 out of 5 stars Starting with Bees, 16 Mar 2006
There are many good books on beekeeping but for the complete beginner there's nothing to beat this book. It does not assume prior knowledge and explains everything clearly. I particularly liked the illustrated detail such as 'how to read a comb'. In fact the book is so well illustrated and easy to read that it's the one I recommend to my students.

5.0 out of 5 stars A fantastic guide to keeping bees, 12 May 2008
By Mr. Lloyd A. Tredell - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is an excellent book which takes beekeeping through all the stages. It have been a great reference for me during my first 2 years and kept my bees fit and healthy. Starts with the history through to aquiring bees, basic equipment, care, management, swarm control, queen marking everything really and well written to boot!

5.0 out of 5 stars Starting with Bees- Review, 16 Sep 2009
By D. Finnegan (Belfast, Northern Ireland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is short, easy to read and contains plenty of diagrams and photographs to accompany the text. It also provides a list of beekeeping resources within the UK which other similar books do not. In summary, 'Starting with Bees' is a good introduction to beekeeping.
