Inspiré par les auteurs d'aventures de sa jeunesse, Charles G. West crée des romans westerns ancrés dans une recherche diligente. Il s'efforce de dépeindre authentiquement les hommes et les femmes qui ont bravement affronté les dangers de la frontière américaine, tissant la fiction dans le tissu de lieux et d'événements réels. Ses protagonistes ne sont pas toujours des héros, mais sont souvent appelés à accomplir des actes héroïques, incarnant le courage aux côtés d'un fort sens de la justice. L'œuvre de West capture authentiquement l'esprit de l'époque et les personnes qui ont façonné l'Ouest.
