Alister MacKenzie : ウィキペディア英語版 | Alister MacKenzie Alister MacKenzie (August 30, 1870 – January 6, 1934) was a British golf course architect whose course designs span four continents. Originally trained as a surgeon, MacKenzie served as a civilian doctor with the British army during the Boer War where he first became aware of the principles of camouflage. During World War I, MacKenzie made his own significant contributions to military camouflage, which he saw as closely related to golf course design.〔MacKenzie 1920, pp. 128–131; Behrens 2009〕 He is a member of the World Golf Hall of Fame, with designs that include Augusta National Golf Club in the USA, Moortown Golf Club in England, Lahinch Golf Club in Ireland, and St. Charles Country Club in Canada. ==Early years== MacKenzie was born in Normanton, near Leeds in Yorkshire, England to parents of Scottish extraction. His mother Mary Jane Smith MacKenzie had family roots in Glasgow. His father, William Scobie MacKenzie, a medical doctor, had been born and raised in the Scottish Highlands near Lochinvar. Although christened after his paternal grandfather Alexander, he was called "Alister" (Gaelic for Alexander) from birth. As a youth, MacKenzie and his family spent summers near Lochnivar, on what had been traditional Clan MacKenzie lands from 1670-1745. MacKenzie's strong identification with his Scottish roots featured prominently in many aspects of his later life.〔"The Life and Work of Dr. Alister MacKenzie", by Doak, Scott & Haddock, 2001 pp 22-28〕 MacKenzie attended Queen Elizabeth Grammar School, Wakefield, before heading for Cambridge University, where he initially trained as a medical doctor, graduating in 1891 with a B.A. (Natural Science Tripos Part 1), with Honours, Third Class, before the next year undertaking and passing 2nd MB (Bachelor of Medicine. Latin: ''Medicinae Baccalaureus'') Anatomy. After a period working in Leeds, he returned to Cambridge in 1895 where he undertook the 3rd MB examination (Part 1) before passing the London Licentiate examinations for Royal College of Surgeons the same year. Finally, in 1897 he graduated from Cambridge University, with MB BacS (Bachelor of Surgery), and MA degrees. ()
