In 'The Knights of St. John: with the Battle of Lepanto and Siege of Vienna,' Augusta Theodosia Drane meticulously chronicles the storied history of the Knights of St. John, a chivalric order renowned for its valor and military prowess during the turbulent conflicts of the 16th century.

Her work reflects the Victorian fascination with heroism and the moral imperatives of chivalry, illustrating the layered tensions between faith, honor, and warfare in an age marked by religious fervor and empire-building. Augusta Theodosia Drane, a Victorian writer with a passion for history and the culture of the Catholic Church, explores these themes with a fervent devotion that stems from her own beliefs and heritage.
