Chameleon on the Gallows - The Great Comic Prequel to Stormwrack (Paperback)

The unfolding saga of a Western Cape town climbing out of the shadow of slavery into early Victorian settled prosperity. Based on the history of Clanwilliam in Southern Namaqualand, where he was brought up, in Chameleon on the Gallows Leipoldt tells the story of the rehabilitating Everardus and his courageous wife Magriet, of the legendary Widow Priem, horsebreeder, and her shy strolling player lover, the Frenchman Pierre. Other goings-on of great moment are recorded, leading to this unforgettable community's election of their first parliamentary representatives.
