MDCCXXVI = 1726 The True Amazons: Or, the Monarchy of Bees What makes this book so special in relation to others of the same title and year is the unique, individual, eccentric hand written inscriptions, notes and personal remarks by the original owner though out. This is a time capsule as an important reference field guide of its time. It would have been taken to the owners apiary, read, points of interest noted and taken back to their study for further reading.
