That move wants to earn a tempo. It threatens 5.c3 and 6.d4 to have got predominance in the center.
But if you play white be careful to Lasker defence:
1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Ac4 Ac5 4.b4 B:b4 5.c3 Aa5 6.0-0 d6 7.d4 Ab6.
or 5...Ac5 6.d4 e:d4 7.0-0 d6.
These moves should advantage black and not white!

There is a lot of theory to the Evans, more than one could cover in a post. It is interesting to compare Morphy's and Anderssen's approach to the game. Anderssen always makes a threat when he moves, if the threat involves developing a piece it's a coincident, while Morphy makes a effort to develop a piece. While Morphy also likes to make threats he places a premium on development. If you Google the Evans Gambit you can find quite a bit of theory. I believe there are some articles at chesscafe.com which you should find when you do your search.

Google youtube Evan's gambit

Message:
Youtube is good because they play out the game on a chess board rather than having to follow chess notation - but iguess it is a matter of personal preference:)

The Evans is wonderful fun, but can get very positional and boring if black declines.




Chess news:

Chess, by Lubomir Kavalek -- Luis Ramirez Lucena was the Spanish author of the oldest surviving chess book, "Repetición de Amores y Arte de Ajedrez con ci Iuegos de Partido." His 1497 work discusses some opening play and also includes 150 chess problems, sometimes with unusual tasks. For example, in one of them (White: Ke5,Ra1,Rf1,P:e6; Black: Kh8, P:f2) white has to mate with a pawn. How? An Elusive Weakness. The pawn on f7 is black's weakest pawn at the start of the chess game and beginners may learn it the hard way. Defended only by the king, the pawn has been a target in many games ending with the Fool's Mate (1.e4 e5 2.Qh5 Nc6 3.Bc4 Nf6?? 4.Qxf7 mate). Another attack ...

Azerbaijan vs. the World, and a Rout Ensues -- If the people of Azerbaijan felt the whole chess world was against them this month, they had a right to do so. On May 7-9, a chess team from Azerbaijan played eight rounds against a chess squad of competitors from around the world. On paper, it was not an unfair match: Azerbaijan’s team had three of the world’s top 20 chess players — Teimour Radjabov (No. 5), Vugar Gashimov (No. 16) and Shakhriyar Mamedyarov (No. 20). But the world team was even more impressive, with Viswanathan Anand of India (No. 2), Vladimir Kramnik of Russia (No. 4), Alexei Shirov of Spain (No. 13) and Sergey Karjakin of Ukraine (No. 23). The final result was ...

Bennett and King on chess: zugzwang variations -- RB This looks lost for White, but maybe there's a stalemate. Let's get rid of the pawns first: 1 f7+ Kxf7 2 h7 Kg7 3 h8Q+ Kxh8. Now what's the right square for the king? Let's step back and see what happens: 4 Kb1, and now if 4 ... c3 5 Kc2. Wait a minute. Black can't promote. If 5 ... a3 then 6 Kb3 and the pawns can make no further progress. Is there something better for Black? What about 4 ... b3 ... ? No, that doesn't work either. White simply plays 5 Kb2. The black king can't do anything useful either. If it goes to f7 then I go h7 and it will be one of the white pawns that queens. So let's revise that first sentence, in which I meant to say: This looks ...
