Bees in America by Tammy Horn Pdf

“Integrates history, technology, sociology, economics, and politics with this remarkable insect serving as the unifying concept” (Buffalo News). The tiny, industrious honey bee has become part of popular imagination—reflected in our art, our advertising, even our language itself with such terms as queen bee and busy as a bee. Honey bees—and the values associated with them—have influenced American culture for four centuries. Bees and beekeepers have represented order and stability throughout the changes, challenges, and expansions of a highly diverse country. Bees in America is an enlightening cultural history of bees and beekeeping in the United States. Tammy Horn, herself a beekeeper, offers a social and technological history from the colonial period, when the British first brought bees to the New World, to the present, when bees are being trained by the American military to detect bombs. Horn shows how the honey bee was one of the first symbols of colonization and how bees’ societal structures shaped our ideals about work, family, community, and leisure. This book is both a fascinating read and an “excellent example of the effects agriculture has on history” (Booklist). “A wealth of worthy material.” —Publishers Weekly

Beginner's Bee Book by Frank Pellett Pdf

Who wouldn't like to start in with the keeping of a colony of bees? How much there is to invite and attract in such an enterprise! An essential thing with so many persons, is the practicability of the venture from the standpoint of its being easy to begin, because neither difficult from the basis of environment, nor the pocket-book. Very contracted home quarters can be made to fit the planting of a bee-hive, while the money investment is small. And again, how fascinating is the community life of the bee, and furnishing endless opportunity for delightful study. And the harvest of golden honey, something by no means to be despised, gives further impetus to the vocation of beekeeping. Our old friend, Frank C. Pellett, formerly of Atlantic, Iowa, now of Hamilton, Ill., has written a little book for beginners, which furnishes data on "How to Start," "The Equipment Needed," "The Construction of Hives," "Feeding, Care and Breeding," and "Where and How to Sell." As will be seen, this is a fairly full program for a beginner, and it has been the author's aim to present the fundamentals of the enterprise, apart from details which new not concern the novice at the start. A very attractive manual, the book seems to bristle with information of every kind. It is well printed, in addition to being featured with illustrations, while a valuable glossary of bee-keeping terms is appended. Mr. Pellett is a well-known and reliable authority on the subject on which he writes, and what he says, comes with the prestige of experience and authority. --Wildways, Volume 4 [1920]
