Queen breeding, the purity of Italian queens, and the tricky business of introducing a new queen dominate this November issue from 1870. The American Bee Journal trades hard-won advice among keepers chasing hardy, prolific bees. For anyone who has managed a hive, a window into the craft's early debates. The queen is the heart of it all.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
