> "Elimination of American Foulbrood without the use of Drugs".

The book doesn't so much describe a single 'method' but rather a
series of strategies to reduce and ultimately eliminate AFB.

It was produced by the Nat Bkprs Assn of NZ as part of our Pest
Management Strategy.

I may be biased, but I personally think it is one of the most
amazingly readable texts I've seen on the subject, one that may
not get talked about in places where antibiotics, particularly
prophylactically, are the norm.

It is scientifically sound (with an extensive bibliography), and
incorporates both commonsense and the 'lore' of being a
commercial beekeeper that may not often get written down.

And the final punchline?  BUY THE BOOK - it is well worth it.
