N2  - "Lord Palmerston: a opinião e os factos" by Carlos Testa is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. This book discusses the political actions and policies of Lord Palmerston, particularly in relation to Portugal, often portraying him as a contentious figure in diplomatic relations. The likely focus of the book is on the critique of Palmerston’s foreign policy and its implications for Portugal, highlighting the perceived injustices faced by the Portuguese nation.  In this work, Testa delves deep into the complexities of British-Portuguese relations during the time of Lord Palmerston, illustrating how his policies were perceived as oppressive and detrimental to Portuguese sovereignty. The narrative is enriched with historical references and examples that showcase Palmerston's role in the controversies surrounding slavery and colonial governance. Testa argues that despite Palmerston being hailed as a champion of freedom and ally to England, his actions often undermined Portugal’s independence, leading to significant diplomatic strife. The book serves as a plea for historical recognition of Portugal's grievances and a denunciation of the moral failings of a statesman celebrated in British circles while being reviled by those who suffered under his policies.
