SUMMARY:WI Book Festival Author Event: Stone Age Astronaut (Liam Callanan)
DESCRIPTION:October 17th\n4:30-5:30pm\nCentral Library – Community Room 302 \nPresented in partnership with the Wisconsin Book Festival. \nAward-winning author Liam Callanan uncovers the astonishing life of Lester Maitland—the Milwaukee-born aviator who\, in 1927\, became the first person to fly to Hawaii\, earning national acclaim on par with Charles Lindbergh’s transatlantic triumph. For a brief moment\, the two men shared headlines\, White House invitations\, and fame. But while Lindbergh’s legacy grew\, Maitland’s all but vanished. \nCallanan brings Maitland back into the spotlight\, tracing his meteoric early career: flight instructor at nineteen; one of the US Army’s first test pilots; the first American to fly faster than 200 mph; and the pioneering airman whose Pacific crossing earned him the Distinguished Flying Cross. \nJust twenty-two days after becoming Executive Officer of the Far East Air Service Command—and one day after Pearl Harbor—Maitland witnessed the destruction of much of the Far East Air Force in the Philippines. Later\, he commanded the 386th Bomb Group in Europe\, making him World War II’s oldest bomber pilot\, only to be abruptly and mysteriously retired weeks before D-Day. After the war\, Maitland experienced a series of professional and personal disappointments\, and he quietly faded into obscurity. He eventually became an Episcopal priest\, serving small parishes far from the glamour of his early days in the cockpit. \nThe pages of Stone Age Astronaut hum with the tension and excitement of early aviation\, rendered in a richly detailed narrative and Callanan’s research—spanning archives\, newspapers\, interviews\, and travel to key sites—to reveal the remarkable sweep of Lester Maitland’s world. Along the way\, readers encounter a constellation of notable figures\, including Amelia Earhart\, Billy Mitchell\, Ernest Hemingway\, Gerald Ford\, and Harry Houdini. With sparkling prose and a storyteller’s instinct for detail\, Callanan resurrects a man whose life intersected with major events\, eras\, and personalities—but who has inexplicably slipped through the cracks of American memory. A gripping portrait of ambition\, innovation\, fame\, failure\, and reinvention—and the enduring human urge to fly—Stone Age Astronaut ensures that Lester Maitland’s extraordinary story will no longer be forgotten. \nIn conversation with Jeff Oloizia. \nCheck out more Wisconsin Book Festival & Wisconsin Science Festival partner events here!
