Download or read book Bees in America written by Tammy Horn and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2006-04-21 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “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

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Bee-Keeper, Vol. 1: January December, 1891 Experience shows that the honey gathered is larger when the bees have ready-made combs, when there is nothing to do except to empty the honey into receptacles already prepar ed, than under the usual conditions. During the flow of any kind of honey, the bees cannot gather all of it, but they will gather more, or they will have more time to gather it if there be no comb to build. The greatest success comes, if at the beginning of the flow of honey, a crate of ready-made combs be placed in the surplus chamber. This gives the bees a great impulse. If the brood chamber be full, as it ought to be, except laying room for the queen, there is no place for honey, except in the surplus combs to put it, and there it goes with a rush.
