Substantially revised and enlarged 20th Century Edition of this apiary classic which not only presented Langstroth’s invention of honeybee hives but also a number of innovations and changes by Dadant 1817-1902 which included adapting the Quinby size frames to the Langstroth hive system. Filled with additional illustrations and revisions from Langstroth himself who had commissioned Dadant to carry out the work when his health failed in the 1880’s this French-American quickly established his text as a necessity for aspiring beekeepers. Langstroth 1810-1895 fabricated the hives for sale with Henry Bourquin a local cabinetmaker and beekeeper and although he secured a patent in 1852 Patent No. 9300 other beekeepers quickly adopted his designs and he spent many years unsuccessfully defending the patent.
