Scope and content
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.
