Flu: The Story of the Great Influenza Pandemic of 1918 and the Search for the Virus That Caused It Paperback - 2001 - 1st Edition
by Gina Kolata
The author examines the Great Influenza Epidemic of 1918 that killed an estimated 40 to 100 million people in the world, and delves into the mystery that still surrounds it. Kolata takes readers into the lab where scientists today are working with samples of the virus, and addresses the prospects for a recurrence of an equally lethal pandemic.
First line
When the plague came, on those chilly days of autumn, some said it was a terrible new weapon of war.
