Synopsis
Death-defying pioneer parachute artist Miss Hazel Keyes earned renown across America, leaping from her balloon in the 1890s. Drawing spectators to her parachuting performances by the thousands for more than a decade jumping with her monkey, Miss Jennie Yan Yan, Hazel endured relentless hardship and injury to earn her living and claim her slice of fame. Suffering assault by friends, family, strangers, and the earth, she survived her perilous occupation for more than a decade.
Following her career, the skydiving queen again garnered fame. She blazed a new trail as she battled her husbands, sons, government officials, and "bad actors" to maintain her wealth, sanity, and property. The rock-tough woman persevered despite gunshot wounds, emotional anguish, and betrayal. Her tale of fortitude stands remarkable in the annals of American history.

About the Author
William Kalt's passion for history began on his grandmother's lap, hearing stories of life in 1890s mining camps on the Western frontier. Discovering her family lived in Prescott, Arizona when Miss Hazel Keyes performed there fired his interest in America's Parachute Queen. As the astounding details emerged, he dug further into her remarkable life to find one of the wildest tales he has yet uncovered. The Journal of Arizona named Kalt's story "Colonel Epes Randolph: Railroad Man of the Southwest" the best article in 2006. His book Tucson Was a Railroad Town: the Days of Steam on the Big Burg in the Main Line won a 2008 Southwest Book of the Year. Kalt's High in Desert Skies: Early Arizona Aviation was a finalist for the Arizona Authors Association published non-fiction book of 2018.
