The glue in this perfect bound book is over 50 years old and is likely " In 1954, Burgess had joined the British Colonial Service as a teacher and education officer in Malaya, initially stationed at Kuala Kangsar in Perak. Here he taught at the Malay College (now Malay College Kuala Kangsar MCKK), modeled on English public school lines. In addition to his teaching duties, he was a housemaster in charge of students of the preparatory school, who were housed at a Victorian mansion known as "King's Pavilion". A variety of the music he wrote there was influenced by the country, notably Sinfoni Melayu for orchestra and brass band, which included cries of Merdeka (independence) from the audience. No score, however, is extant. Burgess attained fluency in Malay, spoken and written, achieving distinction in the examinations in the language set by the Colonial Office. He was rewarded with a salary increase for his proficiency in the language. He devoted some of his free time in Malaya to creative writing "as a sort of gentlemanly hobby, because I knew there wasn't any money in it," and published his first novels: "Time for a Tiger", "The Enemy in the Blanket" and "Beds in the East". These became known as The Malayan Trilogy and were later published in one volume as "The Long Day Wanes"." -- From Black Cat Hill Books' elaborate description. First Edition Thus [1966]

Lorenzo Lorraine Langstroth (1810-1895), generally recognised as the father of American beekeeping and inventor of the Langstroth Hive. First published in 1853, his seminal work 'The Hive and Honey-Bee' quickly ran to several editions before ill-health in 1885 compelled the author to pass revision of the work to Chas Dadant, whose revised and enlarged edition was first issued in 1888.
