The Beekeeper's Lament

THE BEEKEEPER'S LAMENT - USA

By Nordhaus

"You'll never think of bees, their keepers, or the fruits (and nuts) of their labors the same way again." Trevor Corson, author of The Secret Life of Lobsters

Award-winning journalist Hannah Nordhaus tells the remarkable story of John Miller, one of America's foremost migratory beekeepers, and the myriad and mysterious epidemics threatening American honeybee populations.

In luminous, razor-sharp prose, Nordhaus explores the vital role that honeybees play in American agribusiness, the maintenance of our food chain, and the very future of the nation.
