One of the great bee books of the last century. It ranks and is perhaps a better read than the titles from Brother Adam and Donald Sims.
It is written from experience of keeping large numbers of stocks over many many years. He gives the reader an insight to the craft - like no other.
The bees are now in bed - use the Winter months to improve your knowledge of the craft!
