Review: A+ book! - Almost 10 years later and I’m now a seasoned beekeeper- because of this book! This book taught me everything I needed to know to be a beekeeper. I had always wanted to be a beekeeper but knew nothing about it so I ordered this book. It gave me tons of insight and knowledge! I still use it to this day if I am stumped by something. I have even bought this book a few timed for friends nd family because it’s so good! A+ from this teacher!
Review: Full of great information! - I loved this audiobook so much I listened to it twice! It’s great for the new beekeeper or experienced beekeeper! After listening I had a good understanding of all the aspects of beekeeping and knew I could start once I had enough money to get all the supplies and Bees! When I get my hive started I’ll definitely revisit the book then too for advice. Great tool to have!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very informative and Easy to follow
*by D***E on April 21, 2020*

When I started reading this book I had absolutely no knowledge about beekeeping what so ever. After reading it and doing a little more research, I was able to feel more confident about buying a hive and setting it up. The author does a very good job of comparing all of the hive types and explaining the pros and cons of each one. Even though the book mainly covers the Langstroth hive, it gives plenty of information and tips on other hives and styles of beekeeping. I refer back to this book whenever I need to refresh my memory on how to do things. This book covers all aspects of beekeeping and if this is something you are thinking of doing, I highly recommend it. Looking on the internet intimidated me to the point that I almost didn't even try to do it. This book helped to break it down and make it a little less confusing. There is a lot of contradicting information out there, so start here so you have a little better understanding from an expert.
