Florence Farmborough
Florence Farmborough FRGS (Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, 15 April 1887 – 18 August 1978, Marple, Greater Manchester) was an author, photographer, nurse, teacher and university lecturer.
==Early biography==
Florence Farmborough, who was the fourth of six children,〔Preface, ''With the Armies of the Tsar.''〕 was born and grew up in Buckinghamshire.〔''With the Armies of the Tsar,'' p. 23.〕 She originally went to live in Russia in 1908, and worked as a governess for a family in Kiev. Two years later she moved to Moscow, where she was employed as English tutor to the two daughters of Pavel Sergeyvich Usov, a distinguished heart surgeon.〔''With the Armies of the Tsar,'', p. 19.〕 On the outbreak of the Great War in 1914, she qualified and worked as a Red Cross nurse with the Imperial Russian army, and saw service at both the Galician and the Romanian Fronts. During her time as a nurse she kept a diary and habitually took a large plate camera around with her. She would develop and print her plates while encamped with the forces. Extracts from the diaries were eventually used as the source material for her book, ''Nurse at the Russian Front'', published in 1974. She also worked as a reporter for ''The Times'' and for BBC Radio. Following the October Revolution and the disbandment of her Red Cross unit, she returned to England in 1918, travelling via Siberia, Vladivostok and the US, and crossing the Pacific on the same ship as Maria Bochkareva.〔''With the Armies of the Tsar'', p. 408.〕 During and after this journey she wrote a number of articles for ''The Times'', which were based on what she had witnessed and experienced in Russia in the aftermath of the Bolshevik coup.〔See, for example, "Moscow as it is," in ''The Times'', Saturday 13 July 1918, p. 5; "Through Siberia," in ''The Times'', Monday 29 July 1918, p. 5; "Vladivostok: Three weeks in a coal-siding," in ''The Times'', Wednesday 11 September 1918, p. 7.〕
