> AFAIK this book is still readily available, but its predecessor, "Forty

A close friend has in his collection the "Fifty year " book in pristine
condition signed by Dr. Miller.

I have read the " forty year" book a couple times but has been decades ago.
I really do not know of a
copy in my circles.

I believe Virginia Webb and Larry Conner said they have both in their
collections.

If the book "Beekeeping" by Phillips is available on line ( I heard it was)
I highly recommend. Dr. C.C. Miller was a close friend of Phillips and 
consulted Miller when writing.

First edition 1915 and the scond 1928.

The book was in most public libraries and I do not know the number of times
I checked out in the early years!
