Haverholme Or The Apotheosis Of Jingo: A Satire (1878) is a book written by Edward Jenkins. It is a satirical novel that takes a critical look at the political and social issues prevalent in 19th century England. The story is set in the fictional town of Haverholme, where the people are obsessed with the idea of patriotism and nationalism. The protagonist, Jingo, is a young man who becomes a hero in the eyes of the town by promoting these values. However, as the story progresses, Jingo's true intentions are revealed, and the people of Haverholme start to question their blind devotion to nationalism. The book is a commentary on the dangers of blind patriotism and the negative consequences it can have on society.
