To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
France did not recognise the facts till later, and the Ferry Cabinet got no thanks for their service to the country. And when, in the vi] Tunis and Egypt 291 course of the summer, the campaign in Tunis had to be continued, it was so unpopular that the Paris deputies talked of impeaching Ferry; indeed the nation itself seemed to endorse the comparison that was often made between the conquest of Tunis and the expedition to Mexico. Jules Ferry resigned on October 28, 1881, and was succeeded, as Pr...esident of the Council and Minister of Foreign Affairs, by Gambetta, who at any rate had justified his action first by defending him and next by completing the task, so as to put a stop to what he called "the policy of crushing France flat in the face of Europe. " The lesson was not lost on their more timid successors when, after the Tunis question, the problem of Egypt came on for solution. So far back as May 1876, Disraeli, addressing France, had disclaimed the idea ascribed to him of coveting Egypt; and again, at the Congress of Berlin, Waddington had taken formal note of the declarations of the British Cabinet admitting the equality in position and influence of the two Powers on the Nile.
