Haverholme Or The Apotheosis Of Jingo: A Satire is a book written by Edward Jenkins and first published in 1878. The book is a satirical work that critiques the political and social climate of the time. The story is set in the fictional town of Haverholme and centers around a character named Jingo, who is a representation of the extreme nationalism and imperialism that was prevalent in Victorian England. Jingo becomes a hero in Haverholme due to his aggressive and belligerent behavior towards other countries, but his actions ultimately lead to disaster. The book uses humor and irony to comment on the dangers of nationalism and the folly of war. Overall, Haverholme Or The Apotheosis Of Jingo: A Satire is a thought-provoking work that provides insight into the political and social issues of the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
