Ethel Crane

Ethel Crane's writing culminated in two encyclopaedic tomes, Bees and Beekeeping: science, practice and world resources (1990) and The World History of Beekeeping and Honey Hunting (1999). These distilled a lifetime's knowledge and experience and are regarded as seminal textbooks throughout the beekeeping world. She died at the age of 95 in Slough.
