Excerpt from How to Umpire, Vol. 1
When the publishers asked Mr. Evans to write a book on Umpiring, they did not expect an encyclopedia, but that is what it might well be called. Mr. Evans has gone into the matter of "How to Umpire" most conscientiously, explaining every point, and his instructions, if carefully followed, will enable the reader not only to become familiar with the duties of the most arduous and thankless position on the ball field but at the same time earn for the one who knows - and knows he knows - the respect of even the most rabid partisan.
Mr. Evans' ability as an arbiter and executive is familiar to every follower of base ball, and now this book, which will be a standard authority for years to come furnishes another interesting sidelight on his versatility.
