Books
Eden was one of the most fascinating and ultimately tragic British politicians of the 20th century. A man of rigid honour, he resigned as Foreign Secretary in 1938 over the appeasement of Hitler, eventually achieving his desire to be Prime Minister, only to be brought down by the 1956 Suez Crisis.
