Abstract
BEEKEEPERS have waited a long time for a life of Langstroth, but Miss Naile has now produced a pleasantly written and well-arranged volume, attractively got up, which contains all that has been known about Langstroth and a good deal (especially about his ancestry and early years) which will be new to her readers. Prof. E. F. Phillips, professor of apiculture at Cornell University, has supplied the foreword and introduction, and the volume may be regarded as the official American ‘life’ of Langstroth.
