"Mackenzie's greatest work for posterity was his two-volume textbook, 'Diseases of the Throat and Nose', which remains to this day the basis of all British laryngological literature, called by Sir St. Clair Thomson 'the laryngologist's Bible'. . . . It was at once universally recognized throughout the world as a classical treatise, the standard textbook of laryngology. The two volumes not only covered the whole field of the specialty as it existed at the time of publication, but anticipated by their author's suggestions many advances that owed their inspiration to him. . ."
