Welcome to the latest 'Original Content Series', here's David Semple's fantastic write-up on Sir Anthony Eden. Sir Anthony Eden was the first British prime minister to confront the stark limitations of British power after the end of the Second World War, during the new postwar era of Pax Americana which accompanied the twilight years of the British Empire.
