The early letters are from Thames House in London while Gareth Jones remained a researcher in the employ of David Lloyd George. These letters describe his work and activities there and the interesting people whom he meets and his trips to various places. Later he describes his work as a journalist and his plans and ambitions for the course of his future career. He often refers to the books which he is reading too. Later in 1934 he began his 'around-the-world tour', and there are some letters from a large number of countries describing his events and experiences. There are letters written at New York, Washington DC, Wisconsin, Hollywood (California) during the early part of the tour, and he often refers to the articles which he is writing for various newspapers and journals and to the lectures which he sometimes delivers. Later letters were written at Japan, Hong Kong, Java, Singapore, Siam and China and discuss events and developments in those countries and his ever developing and changing plans for travelling further. Throughout there are references and enquiries about events at home in Barry and south Wales. There are also typescript copies of some of the last letters which he sent to his family during June and July 1935 just before his capture by the 'bandits'.

Notes, addresses and interviews related to the Soviet Union, mostly in French. At the start of the notebook there are notes including a reference and instructions to go to Kharkoff from Samuel N. Harper, a Russia expert who had returned from USSR in late October 1932 and who met Sir Bernard Pares and Jones at an RIIA meeting on December 14, 1932. It is believed that the notes were immediately after this meeting. The remainder of the notebook dates from July 1933 and was written in Paris. According to Ray Gamache this diary notebook is actually a very important one in that it establishes with documentation who persuaded Jones to undertake his 1933 trips to Germany and the Soviet Union for his newspaper series, "A Welshman Looks at Europe."
