Joseph Henry Blackburne research project

When I posted Some games from Tim Harding's Eminent Victorian Chess Players  I had the what I thought was a vain hope that someone would write a Blackburne biography, now comes the news that Tim Harding has a contract offer from McFarland for a biography of  Joseph Henry Blackburne.  All I can say  is that I can think of few authors better qualified to write a Blackburne biography.
