Peter Carter (author)

Peter Carter (13 August 1929 – 21 July 1999) was a British writer of children's books, primarily historical novels. He won several awards: the Guardian Prize, two Young Observer Prizes, and the German Preis der Leseratten. His books were shortlisted for many more prizes, and were translated into at least six languages, from Japanese to Portuguese.〔
==Life==

Carter was born in Manchester, one of eight children. He left school at 14 and later took evening classes in art and philosophy, before entering Wadham College, Oxford at age 30.〔 There he received the M.A. in English Literature in 1962.〔 He was a school teacher from 1963 to 1976 and then a full-time writer until his death in 1999 from abdominal hæmorrhage, suffered while writing at home in Warwick.〔 Carter's first wife Lois Wilkinson died after one year, during his time at Oxford.〔 He later married Gudrun Willege, a German photographer〔 —or Ulrike Willige〔— and moved to Hamburg, Germany, in 1976.〔 Later they divorced and remarried; he moved or visited back and forth.〔 He married four times in all (one stepson).〔
Carter won Guardian Children's Fiction Prize for ''The Sentinels'', published by Oxford University Press in 1981. The annual book award is judged by a panel of British children's writers and recognises the year's best book by an author who has not yet won it.〔
For ''Under Goliath'' (Oxford, 1977) he was a commended runner-up for the Carnegie Medal from the Library Association, recognising the year's best children's book by a British subject.〔
