Book Review Beekeeping for Dummies, by Howard Blackiston of Bee-Commerce is the one book I wish had been in print when I started as a  beekeeper.  It contains  over 300 pages and 150 photographs and illustrations and is extremely well written and easy to understand.   This book makes a great gift for the beekeeper in your life and is a must  have for any novice.  $20 - available in most book stores or online from bee-commerce.com.
