When the First World War began Florence Farmborough, a young English governess, living in Moscow, volunteered to go to the front as a Red Cross nurse. For three years she shared the privations and sufferings of the armies of the last of the Tsars, until Imperial Russia collapsed around her and the revolution prevailed.
