A blend of history and melodrama, H. Thomas Howells Eleanors Pursuit offers the biographical legacy of Eleanor Pendleton. It looks beneath the sensational newspaper coverage of 1911 to explore the confrontation between father and son and Eleanors anxious vigil while awaiting the return of her husband. When Reams lawyer arrives at her apartment instead of Louis and informs her the marriage is over, Eleanor collapses in disbelief. The lawyers take center stage, displacing the lovers.
Chronicling one of the biggest celebrity newspaper stories of its day, Eleanors Pursuit follows the secret deal-making sessions, the stage-managed travesty of justice, and the ultimate courtroom battle. These events come to life as the witnesses and lawyers reveal the private details in their own words. Howell also tells how the public reacted to the story as it unfolded. With surprises at every turn, this biography explains the exceptional final stage of Eleanors pursuit.
H. Thomas Howell graduated from Princeton University where he majored in history and was correspondent for the New York Times. He earned his JD degree at Yale Law School. After serving as an army officer, he practiced law for forty years in Maryland and the District of Columbia. He is a fellow of the American College of Trial Lawyers. A former trustee of the Maryland Historical Society, his publications include twelve volumes on family history and genealogy. Married, with three grown daughters, Howell lives in Lutherville, Maryland.
