C. Marina Marchese
2009, hardback, 256 pages

This fascinating book not only tells the story of one woman's charming and personal account of how she abandoned the rat race to live blissfully as a beekeeper and honey entrepreneur, but also provides everything you'd ever want to know about bees.

C. Marina Marchese fell in love with beekeeping ten years ago when visiting a neighbour, and now her business, Red Bee Honey, sells honey and honey-related products across America.  She has also wrote articles in national beekeeping magazines.

Although her story is warm and inspiring, this book is more than just a memoir as it is also bursting with fascinating and practical information about all aspects of bees, beekeeping, and honey, including life inside the beehive, building a beehive, harvesting honey, recipes for food, drink and personal care products as well as an appendix of 75 different varieties of honey.

Published in America.
