520 . ‡aIn three successive waves, from 1918 to 1919, influenza killed more than 50 million people. World-wide, the pandemic gained the notorious title of 'Spanish Flu'. The United States recorded 550,000 deaths--five times its total military fatalities in the war-- while European deaths totaled over two million. Even as entire battalions were decimated, civilian families were being struck down in their homes. The medical profession, shattered after five terrible years of conflict, lacked the resources to contain and defeat this new enemy. Arnold provides a truly global account of the terrible epidemic. -- adapted from jacket
