Along with his path breaking works on the Reformation in Geneva and the spread of the Reformed tradition in France, Kingdon had an enormous influence on early modern studies through his efforts to found the Sixteenth Century Society and Conference and the ''Sixteenth Century Journal''. During his tenure at Wisconsin, he ushered through a large cohort of graduate students in early modern studies, many of whom have become leading figures in the field.〔http://www.news.wisc.edu/18810〕 ==Works== * ''Geneva and the Coming of the Wars of Religion in France, 1555-1563.''
