The book explores the origins and development of the various orders of knighthood and chivalry in England, including the Order of the Garter, the Order of the Bath, and the Order of the Thistle. Smith delves into the historical context surrounding the creation of these orders, including the political and social factors that influenced their establishment. He also examines the symbolism and significance of the various regalia and insignia associated with these orders.
