"Bees" by Everett Franklin Phillips is an educational book providing an overview of beekeeping best practices, catering to beginners and experienced beekeepers alike. The book begins by introducing beekeeping as a hobby and a possible business, and the author underlines that beginners should grow their skills with just a few bee colonies before getting bigger. The book also presents practical tips and advice by teaching readers how to pick a good spot for their apiaries, underlining the need for hives that have frames that move, and making sure beekeepers know how bees act. The book lays the groundwork for a deep exploration later of bee culture, how to take care of them, and what works best.
