Jeremy; The best book or books that you can read are the RULES !! If you know what the rules are it's hard to stump a good official. If you want to expand your knowledge further there are several good brouchures from 'REFEREE' magazine. One is 'Making the Call'the inner game of sports officiating. There is another one out there that I think is called the twenty something do and don'ts of officiating. These are both obtainable through Referee Magazine. One of the most important things is to get as much experience as possible at ALL levels of competition, and don't be afraid to learn from that experience. Don't take what the coaches and fans say to you personal.
" BE PROFESSIONAL AT ALL TIMES "
Good Luck !!
