World Tour and China Narrative These diary transcriptions can be cross referenced with the articles written by Gareth Jones on his "Round the World Fact Finding Tour" undertaken in 1934 to 1935. Many entries are just jottings made by Gareth. The later diaries are better than the earlier ones. Those that are coloured red are the most interesting to read. Gareth left Britain in October 1934 for 'Round the World Fact Finding Tour' but in July he was captured by bandits for £8,000 with a German, Dr Herbert Mueller. Mueller was released after 2 days but Gareth was killed after 15 days in captivity. ROUND THE WORLD FACT FINDING TOUR DIARIES 1. United States November 1934 2. United States.
