To step inside the walls of a hive reveals a fascinating home of complex design, and the intriguing workings of the community around which it is built. In The Legend of the Hive, Maria Owsianka - a bee-keeper herself - invbestigates further by attempting to enter the mind of a bee. And so we read Deborah's story. In her own words, she tells of her short life, aware that she is part of a family and that she must fulfill her role within the group. 

This carefully researched and beautifully illustrated by Anna Maria Szymańska tale provides an entirely original approach to the study of the life of a summer bee, the social nature of the colony in which she lives, and the Legend to learn and pass on.

The Legend of the Hive is one of the most compelling pieces of natural history writing to be published in recent years, this illustrated account of the life of a summer bee is remarkable both by way of its facinating insight and exquisite presentation.
