Keeping Bees in Towns and Cities by Luke Dixon

Keeping Bees in Towns and Cities features everything an urbanite needs to know to start keeping bees: how to select the perfect hive, how to buy bees, how to care for a colony, how to harvest honey, and what to do in the winter. Urban beekeeping has particular challenges and needs, and this book highlights the challenges and presents practices that are safe, legal, and neighbor-friendly.

The text is rounded out with profiles of urban beekeepers from all over the world, including public hives at the Maryland Center for Horticulture, beekeeping on an office balcony in Melbourne, Australia, and a poolside hive at a hotel in Vancouver, British Columbia.

LUKE DIXON has edited two previous titles in NHB's Good Audition Guides, Shakespeare Monologues for Men and Shakespeare Monologues for Women. As a director, teacher and academic, he is internationally known for his largely site-specific Shakespeare productions, often with his own company, Theatre Nomad. As a teacher he has run workshops and training programmes in Asia, Africa, America and throughout Europe and the UK. He lives in Central London.
