Book excerpt: Born to a leading Boston family in 1881, Eleonora Randolph Sears cut a swath through society in the first half of the twentieth century, as arguably the greatest and most versatile female athlete of her generation. "Eleo" faced off against the world like a gladiator, wielding her competitive skill, her wealth, and the force of her will to topple ancient and suffocating commandments. The daughter of Sears's financial manager paints a dramatic portrait of Boston Brahmin society and one woman who dared to be different.
