	Carto's career as a publisher in the [[alternative media]] began in-earnest in [[1953]]. What followed was an unprecedented career of publishing, in which he published hundreds of patriotic and race realist books, dozens of periodicals, and several magazines. He founded or helped found [[Liberty Lobby]], ''[[The Spotlight]]'' newspaper, ''[[The Institute for Historical Review]]'', ''[[The Barnes Review]]'', and ''[[American Free Press]]''. As of 2010, he continues his work as a publisher of ~~nationalist~~ material through ''The Barnes Review'' and ''American Free Press''.

	Carto entered the world of patriotic and pro-European American publishing in early 1950s. He was, by this time (his mid-to-late 20s), already successful in business. These were hard times to be a ~~nationalist~~ in the racially-European world, and most ~~nationalists~~ retreated into bland [[conservatism]] or simply became [[apolitical]]. Carto did not.
