$50 · Offered by eBay

84p, illustrations. This book will be welcomed by anyone requiring a brief history of flags at sea, but especially by the modelmakers and marine artists for whom it was specifically written. It ranges from the Middle Ages to the Second World War, covers the principal maritime nations, and includes special subjects like signal flags, and even a chapter on researching and making flags for models -- in short, all the information the non-specialist requires.
