From Jim Higgins on STONE AGE ASTRONAUT: ""Stone Age Astronaut: The Astonishing Adventures of America's Forgotten Flier" recounts the remarkable and often turbulent life of Milwaukee native Lester Maitland (1899-1990). In 1927, the same year Charles Lindbergh made his famous transatlantic flight, Maitland and navigator Albert Hegenberger made the first transpacific flight from California to Hawaii. Maitland was publicly feted and nearly as famous as Lindbergh for a brief period."
