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:

After a Last-Place Finish, a Chess Champ Recovers -- After turning in a particularly good performance, it is natural for a chess player to suffer a letdown. But it would be hard to imagine a bigger one than Alexei Shirov’s recent crash and burn. In May, Shirov, of Spain, won the M-Tel Masters in Bulgaria, a chess tournament that featured one of the strongest competitive lineups of the year. Just over a week later, he was in Poikovsky, Russia, for the 10th Karpov Tournament, named for the former world chess champion Anatoly Karpov. Shirov, the chess tournament’s top seed, started with four losses. Two of the games were hard fought, but Shirov was wiped out in the other two. He steadied himself to draw games ...

Wisdom of Chess Champions -- It is always fascinating to read what the world chess champions have to say about their clashes with other strong players and about chess in general. Last year, Russell Enterprises published two classic tournament books, using figurine algebraic notation. In "St. Petersburg 1909" the world chess champion Emanuel Lasker comments on all the games of the event, in which he shared first place with Akiba Rubinstein. Alexander Alekhine's "New York 1924" has been hailed as one of the best tournament books. It was another triumph for Lasker, in which he finished ahead of Jose Raul Capablanca and Alekhine. The book is valuable for its deep verbal annotations with ...

Alexander Motylev wins Karpov tournament -- The 10th annual Karpov chess tournament ended June 12 in Poikovsky, a small city of 20,000 in western Siberia. Former world chess champion Anatoly Karpov designed this event as a 10-player round robin, and the tradition has continued as the chess tournament has gradually grown into one of the world's strongest, with an average rating of 2695. A Russian gas company helps sponsor the tournament. Alexander Motylev of Russia took first prize by defeating chief rival Vugar Gashimov of Azerbaijan in the penultimate round. Motylev scored an undefeated 7-2, while Gashimov finished second with 6-3. Alexander Onischuk of Maryland, the 2006 U.S. chess champion, scored ...
