Bee-Keeping in Britain by R O B Manley.
Manley was a British farmer and beekeeper, an authority on commercial honey farming and developer of the popular Manley moveable frame hives and frame systems. In 1948, Manley became the first man to manage 1,000 colonies in England, having kept bees through the fine summers of the 1920s and 1930s.
This book is a must for the amature or professional bee-keeper and is packed with a wealth of advice and knowledge gained by Manley over his many years of working with bees.
