The Children's Life of the Bee
London: George Allen & Unwin Ltd. 1920. Cloth. Near Fine/Near Fine. 8.5" by 6". Edward J. Detmold. A beautiful and lavishly illustrated edition of this important work edited for children presented in an excellently preserved dust wrapper.

His other works include 'The Intelligence of Flowers' 'The Life of the Ant' and 'The Life of Space'. He also published 'The Life of Termites' in 1926 but this has been accused of being plagiarised from 'The Soul of the White Ant' by Eugene Marais.This work has particular emphasis on the social life of the honeybee. It has been converted into a work for children functioning as a work on nature.With marvellous full colour plates by Edward J. Detmold. In a very scarce and extraordinarily preserved dust wrapper. In the publisher's original full cloth binding with an unclipped dust wrapper. Externally lovely. Dust wrapper is sunned to the spine but otherwise in excellent condition. Internally firmly bound.
