| A note of personal privilege regarding Anthony Carter. Anthony Carter was one of the most prolific authors of bayonet books, one of the leading bayonet experts in Britain, and a very generous contributor to the BCN until his untimely passing in 2002. All of his books are first-rate, but today, command high prices. I am fortunate to have the six volumes above in my reference library, three of which are signed. He is sorely missed by the bayonet collecting community. | ||
