Jonathan Walczak's valuable 40 page book on the disappearance of Hale Boggs is now available for free download at the website linked below.
One drawback - Walczak has not studied the doubts that Boggs likely had about JFK's assassination closely enough. He makes no mention of Joan Mellen's information about Boggs from A FAREWELL TO JUSTICE, or the other data on that topic noted from this thread. Early in the book he quotes an unnamed memo where an FBI agent recounts how Boggs was dismissive of a conspiracy surrounding the assassination. I am not going to take the FBI's word about anything to do with Boggs, and think that Walczak has missed an important line of research that would suggest any such FBI memo is disinformation.
That aside, his book is about the disappearance itself, and has useful information. He might have missed the broader picture, but he does suggest that Boggs was murdered.
Researchers aware of how Boggs was troubled about the Warren Commission findings can join the dots. Boggs deserved better. And Allen Dulles has a lot to answer for.
FOUR GONE: THE UNTOLD STORY OF THE 1972 DISAPPEARANCE OF CONGRESSMAN HALE BOGGS AND NICK BEGICH.

Quote:In 1972, two U.S. congressmen, a political aide, and a pilot vanished on a small plane in Alaska. Despite a search of more than 325,000 square miles, they were never found.Less than 17 months later, Pegge Begich, the widow of one of the congressmen, married Jerry Max Pasley, a man with mafia ties who committed multiple murders, bombed a judge's house, and was even mentioned in Gay Talese's best-seller on the Bonanno crime family, "Honor Thy Father."In the 1990s, while incarcerated for murder, Pasley told four law enforcement agencies, including the FBI, that in 1972, he transported explosives to Alaska, and that another man put a bomb on the plane the night before it vanished.​Pasley, who died in 2010, may have lied. Or he may have told the truth. Read, and make up your own mind. What is certain, however, is this: the FBI conducted a brief, ineffective investigation of his claims, according to three on-the-record law enforcement sources, and the Alaska media remains silent to this day."Four Gone," the product of an ongoing investigation, is the never-before-told story of the disappearance of Hale Boggs, Nick Begich, Russ Brown, and Don Jonz. It is based on extensive documentation and on-the-record sources.
