The Beekeeper's Lament: How One Man and Half a Billion Honey Bees Help Feed America

This book comes with a lot of buzz! John Miller, a migratory beekeeper, is an expert both on the vital role honeybees play in American agribusiness, as well as the various epidemics that threaten their very existence of honeybees. These little insects are vital to things like the existence of fruit, so Miller takes care of and safely transports of billions of bees, from North Dakota to California. The Beekeeper's Lament tells of traditional perils like bears, wax moths, Africanized bees, bee thieves, but recently and increasingly they face Colony Collapse Disorder, when colonies abandon their combs and fly away.
