Last Branch Standing by Sarah Isgur is an insider-informed work of contemporary legal and political nonfiction about the United States Supreme Court. Isgur, known for legal commentary and her role at SCOTUSblog, writes for readers who follow politics but may not have formal legal training. The book explains how the Court operates, why its behavior often resists simple partisan description, and how its institutional habits shape public law. Its purpose is not merely to summarize major cases, but to give readers a framework for interpreting decisions, alliances, procedures, and public controversies around the Court. The title signals a broader argument: in a political system where Congress and the presidency often appear unstable, polarized, or overextended, the Supreme Court remains a distinctive branch with unusual norms, limits, and responsibilities. The tone is accessible and occasionally humorous, but the subject is serious: constitutional authority, judicial legitimacy, and the role of courts in a divided democracy.
