The contents relate to a two-month tour of the United States made by JH in 1958 under the auspices of the English Speaking Union and the Ford Foundation, and the holiday in New England and Canada which immediately followed and in which he was joined by his wife.

The main theme of the tour was agriculture and JH visited a number of agricultural education and research establishments. He also attended sessions of Congress and had meetings with US politicians, and gave lectures and presented screenings of his film of China, made in 1956.

JH's programme was organised by James W. Rowe.
