Bees and Their Keepers: A Journey Through Seasons and Centuries Free Audiobook Download by Lotte Möller


The narrator of this book, Julie Maisey, is an entomologist who has worked closely with bees. The audiobook tells the story of how she came to work with bees and her personal experiences. The journey begins in a garden, then transitions into a trip through history as she learns about the role that bees have played throughout the ages.

Lotte Möller's book is both a guide for the reader and for the laborer. Möller takes us to work with bees, from the hive to the apiary, from the field to the garden, from first-time keepers to those with years of experience. We hear about bee life in all its phases as it travels through seasons and centuries. We witness honey production, beekeeping operations, and bee feeding practices, all through this richly detailed description.

Bees and Their Keepers captures the magnitude of the problem of Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD), a phenomenon in which bee colonies are dying out at an alarming rate. The problem is caused by a combination of factors, including poor nutrition, climate change, pesticides, and infections.

The book starts off with a short history of how humans started to keep bees. The author goes on to describe the different seasons and how the bees adapt to them by changing the color, texture, or shape of their wax. The book is ultimately about how humans have influenced and impacted these creatures so much that through it, we learn about ourselves.

Bees and Their Keepers: A Journey Through Seasons and Centuries is a masterful look at the history of bees, from the ancient times of Aristotle to present day research. It is a comprehensive narrative that effectively conveys the complexity of beekeeping through time, spanning four centuries in three different countries. This book is also conveyed by a narrator who provides an engaging voice for the story.
