Publisher's Synopsis
American Foulbrood is a comprehensive guide to the bacterial disease that afflicts honeybees, written by Gilbert F. White in 1920. The book covers the history of the disease, its symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment, as well as prevention methods and the economic impact of the disease on the beekeeping industry. White provides detailed information on the biology and behavior of the honeybee, as well as the various strains of bacteria that cause American Foulbrood. The book is intended for beekeepers, scientists, and anyone interested in the study of honeybees and their role in agriculture. With its detailed descriptions and practical advice, American Foulbrood remains a valuable resource for beekeepers and researchers more than a century after its initial publication.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
