as with sir robert rhodes james's earlier official biography of eden (1986), thorpe's, which was undertaken at the invitation of eden's widow, clarissa, in 1991, did much to restore eden's reputation, which had suffered considerably in the aftermath of the suez crisis of 1956. indeed, a feature of thorpe’s biographical trilogy was that all three subjects, though having each held two of the three great offices of the british state (eden and home, in addition to being prime minister, both served more than one term as foreign secretary), tended, in retrospect, to be underestimated. lloyd was remembered as eden’s compliant foreign secretary at the time of suez who, as chancellor, was dismissed ignominiously by harold macmillan in a major cabinet reshuffle (the so-called "night of the long knives") in 1962; home, then an hereditary peer, seemed to many an unlikely choice to succeed macmillan as prime minister in 1963 and narrowly lost a general election less than a year later; and eden, though widely admired for his work at the foreign office, attracted, after his short, but momentous premiership, the famous judgement of tacitus on the roman emperor galba, "omnium consensu capax imperii nisi imperasset" ("all would have pronounced him worthy of empire if he had never been emperor").
