The first official definition of the United States flag reads: "Resolved,
that the flag of the United States be thirteen stripes, alternate red and
white; that the union be thirteen stars, white in a blue field, representing
a new Constellation." The purpose of this survey is to identify, illustrate,
and discuss maps that depict, in part or in whole, a flag meeting that
definition.
