"During the 2013 bee season, author Alison Gillespie followed urban beekeepers working in Washington, DC, Baltimore, Philadelphia and New York to find out how they maintain their hives in the city, and why they are drawn to these fascinating insects. She also talked with the scientists investigating the causes of the honey bees' decline." -- P. [4] of cover.
