The Mason-Bees
ISBN: 9781421803579 / Angielski / Twarda / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

I propose to go on with the story, to complete it and especially to consider it from a point of view wholly neglected by that eminent observer. And, first of all, I am tempted to tell how I made this Bee's acquaintance. It was when I first began to teach, about 1843. I had left the normal school at Vaucluse...

The Life of the Bee
ISBN: 9781596050396 / Angielski / Miękka / 436 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. When Maurice Maeterlinck, with a poet's sensibility and sensitivity, turned his attention to a bee hive, his observations turned into a masterpiece.

Maurice Maeterlinck (1862-1949) won the Nobel Prize in literature in...
