Stephen Harvard's art and craftsmanship were rooted equally in the history of the book and the natural world. David Becker's lovingly edited and sumptuously illustrated catalog bears out Harvard's conviction that typography, which is at once art and craft, must "strive to satisfy the intelligence and not the intelligentsia."
