A nice little book on Chesterton's poem is Dale Ahlquist's "Lepanto". The poem plus 114 pages of commentary (there are some obscure references) and a great Chesterton "What If" essay:

What if Don John of Austria had wed Mary Queen of Scots?

What would if had meant for Christendom, England and Europe had a Scottish Catholic Queen had the hero of Lepanto as her Prince consort?
