Eden Returns to Front as Britain Backs Stand Against Dictators
The piece recalls Anthony Eden's 1938 resignation over appeasement with Mussolini and his return as Britain's foreign secretary. It notes Eden's vow to resist dictators, his role in rallying allies, and hopes he will push Soviet cooperation, while reflecting on Halifax's wavering appeasement policy and the broader fight against Nazi Mussolini ties. It also mentions Hell Gate Bridge construction trivia as a side item.
