Written by Antonio Silva Lopes Rocha, the book focuses on the controversial proclamation of Don Miguel as the King of Portugal in 1828, following the death of his father, King John VI.The book provides a detailed analysis of the political and social climate in Portugal at the time, highlighting the conflicts between the liberal and absolutist factions of the ruling elite. It also explores the role of foreign powers, particularly Britain and France, in shaping the outcome of the crisis.Rocha argues that Don Miguel's proclamation was unjust and unconstitutional, as it violated the established laws of succession and undermined the legitimacy of the Portuguese monarchy.
