About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of Bee Hunting by John Ready Lockard. Read in English by Larry Wilson; John; Twinkle; Mike Pelton; MacKenzie Nikol Greenwood Many books on sports of various kinds have been written, but outside of an occasional article in periodicals devoted to bee literature, but little has been written on the subject of bee hunting. Therefore, I have tried, in this volume, Bee Hunting for Pleasure and Profit, to give a work in compact form, the product of what I have learned along this line during the forty years in nature's school room. - Summary by John Ready Lockard
