Greatest Conservative Writers is a Hall of Fame to recognize what students in school never learn: that the finest writing is often conservative rather than liberal. Here is a growing list, along with a section for debatable candidates:
The Best
- George Orwell (d. 1950), who became a conservative in his middle ages and yet liberals continued to promote him
- Pat Buchanan, a speechwriter for Richard Nixon and the author of numerous books
- George Gilder, author of Wealth and Poverty and many additional books on free enterprise.[1]
- Ann Coulter, columnist, book author, and speaker
- Winston Churchill (d. 1965), statesman and writer
- J.R.R. Tolkien (d. 1973), author, poet, and scholar[2]
Arguably Conservative
- F. Scott Fitzgerald (d. 1940), whose greatest novel The Great Gatsby is arguably conservative.
