The first record of the appointment of a provost marshal was in 1511, when Henry Guylford assumed that role. The provost marshal was responsible for maintaining discipline in the British Army. To suppress rising crimes, such as desertion, looking, rape and brawling by the ranks of the army, on April 21, 1810, the Duke of Wellington raised the Cavalry Staff Corps, also known as the Staff Corps of Cavalry or Dragoons, functioned as military police throughout the Peninsular War and later in France.

Busuttil janalizza kif l-ideoloġija Marxista taffettwa l-ħajja tal-ħaddiema, billi tneħħi l-libertà spiritwali u tpoġġi l-istat flok Alla. Permezz tat-tagħlim soċjali tal-Knisja, ix-xogħol jikkuntrasta l-materjaliżmu ateu tal-minġel u l-martell mal-valuri Insara ta’ dinjità, ġustizzja u libertà morali, filwaqt li jħeġġeġ lill-fidili biex jibqgħu sodi fil-fidi tagħhom kontra r-repressjoni totalitarja.

Busuttil jikkonfronta l-qerda tal-kunflitt mat-tfittxija għal paċi durabbli, billi juri kif il-ġrajjiet tal-passat jibqgħu lezzjoni u twissija għall-preżent. Ix-xogħol jenfasizza d-dmir morali tal-Knisja li tiddefendi d-dinjità tal-bniedem, tippromwovi l-ġustizzja soċjali, u tkun tarka kontra l-oppressjoni totalitarja, filwaqt li tiggwida s-soċjetà lejn ir-rikostruzzjoni spiritwali u morali.

Busuttil jippreżenta lill-Polonja bħala "test case" ideoloġiku u spirtwali, fejn it-repressjoni totalitarja, ir-restrizzjonijiet fuq il-libertà reliġjuża, u l-persekuzzjoni tal-fidili huma meqjusa bħala l-"Kalvarju" tan-nazzjon. Permezz ta’ analiżi soċjo-filosofika, ix-xogħol iwissi kontra l-infiltrazzjoni Komunista, filwaqt li jsostni li r-reżistenza u l-fidi Kattolika huma l-unika tarka kontra l-materjaliżmu u l-ateiżmu totalitarju.
