Description
Lottie Dod was the first great heroine in women’s sports: a champion tennis player, golfer, hockey player, tobogganist, skater, mountaineer, and archer. She was also a first-rate musician, giving concerts and performing privately before the King and Queen. Her fame was eclipsed only by that of Queen Victoria, yet two decades after her retirement from sports, she was largely a forgotten figure. This new biography brings Lottie's remarkable achievements back into the public eye in a fascinating story of resilience and determination.
