Title: State Flags Including the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico
Medium: book
Main author(s): Sue R. Brandt
Edition (publisher: place): Franklin Watts: New York (United States)
Language: English
Edition date: 1992

The least serious of the books that I have in my collection that purport to cover the U.S. state flags. It’s down to one illustration and one sparse page of text that explains the symbolism and some of the state’s history but rarely anything about the flag’s history. One example: It illustrates the new Nevada flag (with "NEVADA" below the star rather than circling it) and cheerfully states that the flag was adopted in 1929 with no clarifying remarks.
