Two decades after the Civil War, Josephine Marcus, the
teenage daughter of Jewish immigrants, is lured west with
the promise of marriage to Johnny Behan, one of Arizona’s
famous lawmen. She leaves her San Francisco home to join
Behan in Tombstone, Arizona, a magnet for miners (and
outlaws) attracted by the silver boom. Though united by the
glint of metal, Tombstone is plagued by divided loyalties:
between Confederates and Unionists, Lincoln Republicans and
Democrats. But when the silver-tongued Behan proves unreliable, it is
legendary frontiersman Wyatt Earp who emerges as Josephine’s
match. As the couple’s romance sparks, Behan’s jealousy
ignites a rivalry destined for the history books… At once an epic account of an improbable romance and a
retelling of an iconic American tale, The Last Woman
Standing recalls the famed gunfight at the O.K. Corral
through the eyes of a spunky heroine who sought her happy
ending in a lawless outpost—with a fierce will and an
unflagging spirit.
