Flanders has its own, individual face. a 'fair face' which Patricia Carson describes in an accurate and lively way in this book.

You cannot understand Flanders and the Flemings without knowing their history. the author became very well-known because of 'the Fair Face of Flanders'. this impressive portrait of her second mother country appeared in 1969 and was translated into four languages. It became a best-seller for which in 1977 she received the Eugene Baie-prize. This revised edition is illustrated with photographs by Hugo Maertens.
