From ancient times to the current day, this book traces the role of bees and beekeeping-along with honey and wax-in the religions, mythologies, and folklore of every ethnic group on Earth. How the interaction between people and bees has been mystical from the beginning of time. There will be much time spent with the Greeks, as well as trips to Arabian harems and African savannahs. We also want to take a trip out to the English countryside. The small, modest honeybee has been man's constant friend for as long as there have been humans on this planet, and it continues to be a source of wonder and enchantment today.
