Julian Waters produced a magnificent retrospective of Hermann Zapf: A Life in Letters. In 76 full-color pages, we see his work as a consummate calligrapher, prolific book designer and creator of beautiful typefaces. Waters, who was a student and close friend of Professor Zapf for 35 years, said, "Zapf was the 20th century’s preeminent virtuosic calligrapher, a quiet trailblazer whose influence runs so wide and so deep that it cannot be quantified."
