Reprinted classics

[HVH]

The following four books are back in print:
November Bee Culture page 9 lists Snelgrove's "Queen Rearing" and "The Introduction of Queens", as well as Tom Rinderer's, "Bee Genetics and Breeding". The December issue. p 13 adds Doolittle's "Scientific Queen Rearing.."
These reprinted books will make for some nice winter reading.

There only appeared to be one page. :s

Thanks to everyone that responded with links. Although the PDF's are a great resource, for $25 or so, I plan on purchasing these classics. I have Snelgrove's swarming book, and Doolittle's Queen rearing and was stunned by the depth of knowledge these guys possessed.
I did read Henry Alley's queen rearing book as a PDF but hope it will be re-released as well.

Is there a weblink where I can purchase these old reprinted classics for $25? I've not been able to find any of the oldies for sale except for old original printings at times for over $100. That's why I've found as much as I could in online digital formats. Be sure to send me or post the weblinks if you have any as I'd love to purchase some copies for my Honeybee bookshelf here. :thumbsup:

That one page PDF is odd, as I downloaded it and it was 195 pages with all the original illustrations as well.

The books were described on p9 November Bee Culture and p13 December Bee Culture. The first books are supposed to be available from Northern Bee Books (http://www.beedata.com/nbb/NBB-CAT.pdf) while the Doolittle book is by Dr. Larry Connor's, Wicwas press (www.wicwas.com).

Good Luck
