The Directory of Flags will take you on an enlightening journey. Flags from around the world will provide a key to discovering each country’s national identity and history.

For thousands of years, flags have been used to identify countries and cultures, people and places. Today, the flags of the world can still provide a key to discovering national identity and history of each and every country in the international community. Presented in a neat directory format, this book offers nearly 300 flags, each alongside the story of its provenance and design.

Charlotte Greig is a freelance writer who specializes in books on world cultures, travel, and music. She has written on costumes, tribal customs, ethnic music, and many other topics. Her interest in flags arose as a child when she and her family traveled abroad with her father, a naval officer.
