PREFACE: To WRITE the biography of a living man is to invite ridicule and even obloquy, but for attempting to summarize andinterpret some of the principal facts and factors in the first fortythree years of Anthony Edens career there is perhapsmore than the customary excuse. The astonishing thing isthat although by early middle age his name is a householdword, the story of how he stormed the heights of worldrenown is almost entirely unknown. It is tucked away inthe endless columns of Hansard and the dusty files of localnewspapers.Anthony Eden arrived on the world scene with the emergence of the National Government. He has beenthere ever since, but of his antecedents no questions were asked. The public did not demand a reference. Instead,finding him politically sincere, physically attractive and socially beyond reproach, it conferred on him a testimonialfrom its own immediate impressions. Whereas AdolfHitler, Benito Mussolini, and Joseph Stalin have had touse all the resources of their respective states to build uplegends about themselves, the legend of Anthony Eden is athing at once as simple and mysterious as a classic fairy story.But Edens period of power already belongs to history.Alternative forces and fresh facts have already swept awaymuch of his work. Yet he symbolizes still an aspiration ininternational government and method which the peoples ofGreat Britain and the world at large cannot finally avoid.He is still the greatest threat to the forces of reaction inthis country. And the signs are that the remaining years ofAnthony Edens allotted span will see the causes he championed taken up with renewed zeal. This book has beenwritten under the shadow of recurring crises, culminatingin the reprieve of Munich. Spokesmen of all parties andpersuasions are agreed that the four statesmen who met atthe Fiihrerhaus had behind them the compelling authorityof their respective peoples to find a formula ot peace. The allegiance of Europe could not be guaranteed for war. 396 pp. Englisch, Books<
