Hugh Francis Kearney (22 January 1924 – 1 October 2017) was a British historian, and Amundson Professor Emeritus of the University of Pittsburgh. He was the author of several articles on early modern economic history, a biography of the 1st Earl of Strafford, and the acclaimed book ''British Isles: A History of Four Nations'', which advocated a multi-national "Britannic" approach, rather than an Anglo-centric approach, to their history, historiography and sociology.
