The UFO Experience: Evidence Behind Close Encounters, Project Blue Book, and the Search for Answers

Originally published in 1972 so you mainly only want to read for historical significance yet he paints an all too familiar portrait of what we have seen coming out since Imminent: Inside the Pentagon's Hunt for UFOs, where, despite some telling us there are real investigations going on the government tries to be making best efforts by dismissing almost everything out of hand and generally acting like a reboot of the Three stooges. You can definitely see why Hynek got so frustrated with the lack of scientific rigor one would expect when faced with unknowns in that same airspace as our Air Force. Especially from the Air Force. It reads as familiar enough to today that it lowers expectations that anything has really changed in 50+ years.
