Charles G. West schreibt Westernromane, angetrieben von dem Wunsch, die Männer und Frauen authentisch darzustellen, die die gefährliche Grenze trotzten, die den amerikanischen Westen formte. Seine Erzählungen basieren auf sorgfältiger Recherche und verweben fiktive Geschichten in den Stoff tatsächlicher Orte und historischer Ereignisse, um so den Geist der Ära und ihrer Menschen einzufangen. Wests Protagonisten sind zwar nicht immer konventionelle Helden, werden aber oft zu heldenhaften Taten aufgerufen und verkörpern stets Fairness neben Mut. Seine Arbeit zeichnet sich durch historische Genauigkeit und tiefes Verständnis für die Individuen aus, die den amerikanischen Westen prägten.
