The Black Grippe is a thrilling novel by the renowned British author, Edgar Wallace. Set in the early 20th century, the story revolves around a deadly virus that is spreading rapidly across Europe, causing panic and chaos everywhere. The virus, known as the Black Grippe, is highly contagious and has a mortality rate of over 90%. The governments of various countries are struggling to contain the outbreak and find a cure for the disease.The protagonist of the story is Richard Gresham, a young doctor who is called upon to help fight the epidemic. He teams up with a group of scientists and medical experts to find a cure for the Black Grippe. Along the way, they encounter various challenges and obstacles, including corrupt officials, rival scientists, and a mysterious criminal organization that seems to be behind the outbreak.As the death toll rises and the situation becomes more dire, Gresham and his team race against time to find a cure before it's too late. The Black Grippe is a fast-paced, action-packed thriller that will keep readers on the edge of their seats until the very end. It is a gripping tale of heroism, sacrifice, and the power of human determination in the face of adversity.Professor Van der Bergh was one of those elderly men who never grow old. His blue eye was as clear as it had been on his twentieth birthday, his sensitive mouth was as ready to smile as ever it had been in the flower of his youth. A professor of pathology, a great anatomist, and one of the foremost bacteriologists in the United States, Bevan's doubts and apprehensions were perhaps justified, though he was relieved in mind to discover that he had merely accelerated the great man's departure from New York and was not wholly responsible for a trip which might end in disappointment.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
