Description
An account of the resource
The influenza pandemic of 1918, also known as the Spanish flu, struck the state of Alabama in September of 1918, with devastating results. The pandemic peaked in Mobile, AL, in late October, 1918. <br /><br />This collection follows news articles from the local newspaper, The Mobile Register, from October, 1918, to January 1, 1919, when the city was breathing a sigh of relief and looking towards the new year with hope. World War I was over, and the influenza pandemic was subsiding. The Register's editorial of January 1, 1919, exclaimed:<br /><br />"<strong>Hail great Year! Glad are they who have lived to give you greeting</strong>."
