Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The Feminine Monarchy: Or The History Of Bees is a book written by Charles Butler in 1623. It is a comprehensive and detailed account of the life and behavior of bees, their anatomy, and their social organization. The book explores the role of the queen bee in the hive and compares her to a monarch ruling over her subjects. Butler uses the analogy of a feminine monarchy to describe the hive's social structure, with the queen bee at the top and the worker bees serving her. The book also delves into the production of honey, wax, and other bee products, as well as the importance of bees in pollination. The Feminine Monarchy is considered a classic work of natural history and is still read and studied by beekeepers and scholars today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
