Abstract

Towards the end of World War I a devastating disease spread across the world. Commonly known as the ‘Spanish Influenza’, there is no doubt that it was the single worst natural demographic disaster of the twentieth century. The exact mortality figures are unknown and may never be known, but have been estimated to have been as high as 50 million worldwide. This chapter places the Irish experience of the 1918–1919 pandemic in context. Starting with the history of previous influenza epidemics leading up to 1918, it then moves on to influenza in Great Britain and thereafter explores the historical work on the pandemic in Ireland.
