With a light touch she uses her encyclopaedic knowledge of the subject to shed light on humanity's understanding of bees and bee lore from antiquity to the present. A humorous debunking of the myths that have held for centuries is matched by a wry exploration of how and when they were replaced by fact. In her travels Moller encounters a trigger-happy Californian beekeeper raging against both killer bees and bee politics, warring beekeepers on the Danish island of L so, and Brother Adam of Buckfast Abbey, breeder of the Buckfast queen now popular throughout Europe and beyond, as well a host of others as passionate as she about the complex world of apiculture both past and present 546 Translated from the Swedish 650 0 Bees|xHistory 650 0 Beekeepers|xHistory 650 7 Bin|xhistoria|2sao 650 7 Biodling|xhistoria|2sao 650 7 Biodlare|xhistoria|2sao 655 7 History.|2fast 700 1 Perry, Frank Gabriel,|d1953-|4trl
