Au temps des guerres de religion de nombreux pasteurs formés à Genève prirent part aux conflits et tentèrent d'amener la Fille aînée de l'Eglise à la foi réformée. Geneva and the Coming of the Wars of Religion in France (1555-1563) met en évidence le rôle déterminant que certains prédicateurs jouèrent dans cette période de troubles, révélant l'imbrication, une fois encore, des pouvoirs religieux et politique. Cet essai ayant considérablement marqué la pensée historique sur la Réforme, un tel classique se devait d'être réimprimé. Dans sa postface à la nouvelle édition, Robert Kingdon livre moult détails sur la genèse de l'ouvrage dont l'édition initiale remonte à la Guerre froide.
