Bees In Amber - A Little Book Of Thoughtful Verse
By John Oxenham
Published by Methuen & Co Limited: London 1944

"Bees in Amber: A Little Book of Thoughtful Verse, by John Oxenham, was published by Methuen & Co. Limited in London in 1944. This enduring collection gathers Oxenham's reflective and devotional poetry, written in a spirit of moral courage and quiet faith. Composed in simple yet resonant language, the verses offer meditations on love, duty, suffering, and the enduring strength of the human spirit—qualities that resonated deeply with readers living through the turmoil of two world wars. Each poem reflects Oxenham's gift for transforming everyday experience into spiritual reflection, often infused with hope and gentle wisdom.

First published during the early twentieth century and reissued many times, Bees in Amber remained one of Oxenham's most beloved works, cherished for its sincerity and moral clarity. The 1944 Methuen edition, issued in wartime Britain, carried special poignancy as a source of solace and encouragement to readers facing uncertainty and loss.

Elegant in presentation and timeless in sentiment, Bees in Amber stands as a testament to Oxenham's belief in the redemptive power of faith and kindness. It would appeal to lovers of inspirational verse, collectors of early twentieth-century devotional poetry, and readers seeking comfort in words of quiet moral strength."
