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.

After Training With a Chess Legend, a Teenager Grabs a Big Win -- For 20 years, Garry Kasparov was the top-ranked chess player in the world. There were times, particularly in the early to mid-1990s, when he was so dominant that he seemed to win effortlessly, even against his closest competitors. In the chess tournaments he entered, the true competition was often only for second place. For the last few months, Kasparov, who retired in 2005, has been training Magnus Carlsen, an 18-year-old Norwegian. Many top chess players say he will almost certainly become world champion one day. Carlsen is the most talented player to emerge in the West since Bobby Fischer. But he has been unable to push through to ...

Zatonskih Is U.S. Women’s Chess Champion Again -- With a win in Round 8 of the U.S. Women’s Chess Championship, Anna Zatonskih is the national chess champion, defending the title she won in 2008. It is the third title for Zatonskih, who also won in 2006. Zatonskih clinched the title with a round to go by scoring 7.5 points out of 8. She led from start to finish and had a one point lead over Camilla Baginskaite, the 2000 champion, going into the eighth round. While Zatonskih kept up the pace by beating Sabina Foisor, she got an assist from Irina Krush who beat Baginskaite. Krush, the 1998 and 2007 chess champion, had been expected to be the main competition for Zatonskih, but she got off to very bad start with ...

Chess Opening tips -- Like many games of skill, chess is easy to learn and fun to play — but difficult to master. Although the goal is to checkmate the enemy king, don't expect an early knockout. The opening is roughly defined as the first dozen or so moves. The purpose is not to win outright, but to reach a playable middle game. By following these simple guidelines you should be able to sit down and play an intelligent game of chess. Here are some chess opening tips: 1. Always play to dominate the middle of the board. Occupy, attack or watch the center. 2. Develop ALL your men fast, not just one or two. The opening is a race for rapid and continuous development. 3. Develop knights before ...
