The People Who Run: Being The Tragedy Of The Refugees In Russia is a book written by Violetta Thurstan and published in 1916. The book is a detailed account of the plight of refugees in Russia during World War I. Thurstan, who was a British nurse, was sent to Russia to provide medical assistance to the refugees. She witnessed the suffering of the people who had been displaced by the war and the Russian Revolution. The book describes the terrible conditions in the refugee camps, the lack of food and medical supplies, and the brutal treatment of the refugees by the Russian authorities. Thurstan also provides a personal account of her experiences in Russia, including her interactions with the refugees and the challenges she faced as a foreigner in a war-torn country.
