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."

The volume is labelled 'Scrapbook compiled by Joan Naunton Harding (nee Price) (1919-1999)', containing press cuttings of a few of the newspaper articles published by Gareth Jones during 1933-1935 and some of the columns published in the press casting doubt of the accuracy and veracity of his claims and accusations. Later cuttings relate to his capture by 'bandits' in Mongolia and their ransom demands, and his subsequent murder by shooting. Others pay tribute to his life and work and reflect on his career or list the contributions to the Gareth Jones Memorial Fund. There are reflections on the circumstances of his death, comments on investigations to discover more information, and discussions on how best to commemorate his life.
