Description:
Critical edition of José Ramón Guzmán Álvarez. Original edition of 1586. The present treatise actually consists of two exceptional books that were written for the comers of bygone times and that today, many centuries later, are sure to constitute a delight for beekeepers of the third millennium. The treaty takes us back to a beekeeping that some, the most veteran in dealing with swarms, will find it familiar. A beekeeping in which the hives were made of cork, the swarms, treasures to preserve and respect, and castrating, the renewal of queens or any other task were part of an ancient culture.
