Excerpt from The Pomp of Power
That understanding was the logical sequence of German policy and of Germany's resolution to impose her will upon Europe. It was the inevitable result of the use Germany made of her victory in the War of 1870: which should for all time serve as a reminder to the conquerors of a day not to forget that their grandsons will pay for their errors. Bis marck alone amongst the rulers of his nation saw the danger. But von Moltke and his supporters were able to override him, and he was forced to go with the tide.
It was in 1875 that Great Britain received her first shock respecting the extent of German ambitions. The Times cor respondent in Paris, the celebrated de Blowitz, was able to expose the design then being hatched to attack France again solely because She was recovering too quickly from the effects of her defeat. It required the intervention of both England and Russia to prevent that outrage; and possibly also to open the eyes of the Emperor, Wilhelm I., to the machinations of his Chancellor. Bismarck never forgot nor forgave the letter which Queen Victoria wrote his sovereign on this occasion.
