Title: National Flags
Medium: book
Main author(s): E. H. Baxter
Edition (publisher: place): Frederick Warne and Co.: London and New York (United Kingdom)
Language: English
Edition date: 1934 (no edition specified; presumably first)
Pages: 190
Format: 185×120 mm
Remarks: Hard-back with dust cover

Recommended.

Short introduction.

Part One. British Empire 30 pages.
Covers British flags in general, then deals with the national flags of the dominions and protectorates, and badges of the colonies, one by one.

Part Two. Foreign Countries 80 pages.
Short entry for each country arranged alphabetically. Every entry has a black and white drawing of the flag with colours indicated by a letter code. Surprisingly good system; much better than hatching/shading. Also a list of «Days when the National Flag is Flown» for nearly every entry. Just two fairly ordinary colour plates of National Flags and two colour plates of aircraft insignia. Ends with all the national flag flying days listed by the calendar, and with flags and aircraft insignia classified by appearance.

I’ve not especially checked it for accuracy, but it seems quite good. Lists a large number of authorities consulted, including the Chief Librarian of the East Riding County Library at Beverley and the staff of the Hull Reference Library.

A neat little book. In some ways a fore-runner of Warne’s, «Observer’s Book of Flags» series cra91], but with a better layout.

Title: Las banderas de Artigas
(in English: The flags of Artigas)
Medium: book
Main author(s): Agustín Berāza
Edition (publisher: place): Imprenta Nacional: Montevideo (Uruguay)
Language: Castillian (a.k.a. Spanish)
Edition date: 1957 (no edition specified; presumably first)
Pages: 168
Format: 233×161(×12) mm
Remarks: Soft cover. There is another version of this investigation published as an article [bzaXX].

This book deals with the flags used by the Uruguayan national hero José Gervasio de Artigas from 1812 to 1820, and the later re-adoption of the Artigas’ flag as an Uruguayan National symbol. The book has some information about Argentine provincial flags influenced by Artigas’ federalist ideas.

Agustín Beraza was a very important Uruguayan History scholar. He investigated about a lot of details of the Artigas period in Uruguay. For example we can mention his investigations about Artiguist Privateers.

The book Las Banderas de Artigas has 2 color plates with a total of 26 illustrations (different Artiguist flags). It also has 2 black and white plates (the Artiguist Coat of Arms & the reproduction on an old graphic with the design of Artigas’ flag).
