Charles C. W. Cooke is een schrijver wiens werk kritisch de Anglo-Amerikaanse geschiedenis, de principes van Britse vrijheid, het vitale belang van vrije meningsuiting, de reikwijdte van het Tweede Amendement en het concept van Amerikaans exceptionalisme onderzoekt.

Zijn analyses zijn gebaseerd op een diep begrip van de moderne geschiedenis en politiek.
