William M. Blackburn, American Presbyterian (December 30, 1828 -- 1898) was a noted minister (educated at Princeton; pastored at Erie, PA, Cincinnati, OH and Trenton, NJ), chair of biblical and ecclesiastical history at the Presbyterian theological seminary of the northwest at Chicago, author, and later President of the territorial University of North Dakota and Pierre University.

He wrote a History of the Christian Church from its Origin to the Present Time; a biography of William Farel; a biography of Admiral Coligny; two biographies of the early John Calvin, and a number of other interesting biographies, some of which have been reprinted by Solid Ground Christian Books.
 
I just saw Blackburn's name somewhere.... oh, on a new release from Solid Ground coming up about an early Italian Reformer, Aonio Peleario. Sounds good - apparently there's a M'Crie work about his work in the Italian Reformation (what there was of it before its being crushed) in the offing, too.
