John Willingham has just completed a new novel, The Last Woman, ​whose heroine has to flee Louisiana and make a new life in the harsh male world of the Old West, finding, losing, and rediscovering friends along the way.  Always she must be herself, shunning "bed work" and fighting religious zealots and men who would do her harm.  Finally, she is the last woman.

"...she could not only see the sheer cliff at the end of the trail but could kick some pebbles off the edge.  And watch them fall."
