Ray Stannard Baker, winner of a Pulitzer Prize for his biography of Woodrow Wilson, editor of Wilson's papers, and author of many other works, donated a collection of books on apiculture, or beekeeping, in 1946. A number of these works were published in the 18th century. There is a guide to this collection on the web at http://www.lib.msu.edu/coll/main/spec_col/apic.htm.
