I haven’t had time to completely go over the book in detail, but have noticed some glaring errors. The images are from the Flag Institute Enterprises and image problems are likely to be from the setup process by the publisher.

Protocol
a minor error on the superior presence of the UN flag when flown with the flag of another nation.
Glossary
several minor errors, but it’s interesting to note that she refers to FIAV and how anyone interested should search the Internet for a local flag organization.
Australia, Bahrain
ratios are reversed as fly:hoist.
Belgium, Libya, Moldova
dimensions in the text do not match the image.
Ukraine
a printing defect (probably global): a small hollow circle in the image.
California
image not stretched to the baseline of the area reserved for an image. This gives the impression that the California flag is shifted towards the upper hoist (difficult to describe, except if you think of the present flag reduced 20% with the same leading edge along the upper hoist).
Hawaii
The same mistake as California except that it appears the Hawaiian flag has 9 stripes.
Canada
egad, even though Nunavut existed at the time of publication, it is missing.

It’s the usual format of brief introduction to flag history and nomenclature, followed by an alphabetic listing of countries from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe. Each country has a page consisting of a reasonably good illustration of the flag (but see also below) and a description and some history of the flag (though often including the usual dubious reasons for the colours), together with the really elementary statistics of country name, capital city, currency, language(s), religion(s). However, there is also flag ratio and flag adoption date. The illustrations are credited to Flag Institute Enterprises, which inspires confidence, but there are some unfortunate errors. The Belgian flag is shown at 1:2 (though the text says 13:15) and the flag of Guyana is cut off at the bottom.
André Coutanche, 28 Apr 2002

Apart from these mistakes several flag image also have a white edge along their bottom, suggesting they were inaccurately cut from a white background.
