Nearly a replica of [zna99] — three stars added for Gagauzia, the whole flag, not just the canton of Taiwan, the flag of East Flanders has been replaced by the one of Ouarzazate (twice!), the flag of Amsterdam slightly changed, flag of Warsaw/Prague added (one image) - the name "SCHLESWIG-HOLSTEIN" added; Zuidholland’s flag replaces the Scottish; no new flags for Rwanda, Comores, Nunavut — so it seems to be more a correction than an “update”.

I believe that is actually part (one of two halves) of the Encyclopaedia [zna99], sold separately.
Santiago Dotor, 17 Oct 2003

While it is of smaller dimensions than The World Encyclopedia of Flags [zna99], and has a different cover design, I am sorry to have to report that the reverse of the title page bears the statement «This edition was previously published as The World Encyclopedia of Flags». (In very small print I might add.) I could not find any statement indicating that anything had been revised, added, corrected or updated. I didn’t think to check if it had the new Rwanda flag. I jotted down the Contents page headings and page references and when home compared them to those in my copy of the [zna99] — they appear identical. The only difference at all which I could spot is that the new work has 8 additional pages at the rear of the book, headed "Notes", and otherwise blank.

Remarks: Hard cover (a large-format quality paperback version exists: [zna99a]). For corrections see page b-zna99.html.

Considering that no relevant flag book (except for the Album corrections [pay00]) was published after Crampton’s 1990 books [cra84], I agree Znamierowski is «the best flag book in the last ten years».

But I find the amount of mistakes far too much for what that book ought to be — a good, reliable reference work. Such as Smith 1975 [smi75b] is. When I find now something new in Znamierowski 1999, I ask myself, «is this a novelty, or just one more mistake?». Pity.

Santiago Dotor, 03 Feb 2003

I should point out that while it’s a very nice book, it’s not quite an “encyclopedia”. Flags are placed in certain sections without a clear order, which gives a nice overview but not an encyclopedic comprehensiveness and accessibility.
