Reseña del libro "The American AZ Hive (en Inglés)"
The American AZ Hive The American AZ Hive is full of basic information on the AZ hive from the perspective of the author, Debra. The book gives a realistic look at how the AZ hive functions in simple terms and answers the common questions asked about the AZ hive. It includes some basic history of the AZ hive and information about what the hive and beehouse are like, as well as how the hive works and how to work in the AZ hive. It also includes some designs for the hive and accessories that Debra is using. She chose to write about the American version of the AZ hive as that size of frame is most relatable within the U.S. and the design she uses due to no lifting and protection from the weather.Debra Langley-Boyer Tahuya, Washington StateDebra lives in the Pacific Northwest woods with her husband, Dean.
