Preface: ""The care and culture of Bees have always been one of the most agreeable and useful employments of a country life. The antients cultivated these animals with care from a prospect of honey which was among them as much in use as sugar among us. But since it has been thought proper to substitute sugar in the room of honey the latter has fallen into considerable discredit: but then in return wax has become the subject of a very considerable commerce . "" The book takes the form of a dialogue between ""Clarissa"" who needs to know more about every aspect of bees and bee-keeping and ""Eugenio"" the author in disguise. B.B.B. - ""There is no hint in the book as to who did the translation but it may well have been P. Vailant who is known to have been in Paris in 1739 and may have translated from the proofs. The Vailants were a French Protestant family who settled in The Strand as foreign booksellers at the time of The Revocation of the Edict of Nantes.British Bee Books 96. hardcover
