Excerpt from The Spanish Influenza Pandemic of 1918: An Account of Its Ravages in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, and the Efforts Made to Combat and Subdue ItAbout all that could be done at the start was to adopt and attempt to enforce drastic regulations to minimize contagion; but even in view of these regulations, and when the plague had burst forth in all its widespread malignity, the country at large seemed slow to awaken to the enormity of the peril which it faced.It certainly was a disconcerting fact that, at the very time when vast numbers of the people in widely-distributed localities had organized themselves, through the Red Cross and other well known and efficient mediums, to fight disease and prevent suffer ing and death, we should be smitten with a visitation which caused more casualties and deaths among the peaceful citizens in the homeland than the deadly missiles and poisonous gases of the enemy effected among the American Expeditionary Forces over seas in the great World War.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Two of these volumes are published at this time, while the third and final volume (which will contain a very complete and comprehensive index to the three volumes) will appear about the close of the present year.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

A belief that there was much Of truth in this saying, impelled the writer to embark a long time ago in an undertaking, the results of which he now presents.
