The Revolt of the Bees is a novel written by John Minter Morgan and first published in 1826. The story is set in a beehive, where the bees are ruled by a queen and her loyal followers. However, when the queen becomes corrupt and oppressive, a group of worker bees led by a brave and intelligent bee named Ambrose decide to rebel against her and establish a new order.The novel is a satirical allegory of the political and social upheavals of the time, particularly the French Revolution. It explores themes of power, justice, and freedom, as well as the role of the individual in society. Morgan uses the bees as a metaphor for human society, highlighting the dangers of authoritarian rule and the importance of collective action and individual responsibility.The Revolt of the Bees is a thought-provoking and entertaining read, filled with humor, wit, and political commentary. It is a classic of political satire and a must-read for anyone interested in the history of political thought and the evolution of democracy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
