I don't know of any "historical books" on officiating, but there are sever biographical and autobiographcal books about officials from a variety of sports. One of my favorites is called "Somebody Stole the Pea out of my Whistle". It is about high school basketball officials in Indiana, and has some hilarious anecdotes about some of the interactions between officials and fans, coaches, and players. It is amazing the things those guys were able to get away with about 20-40 years ago that we only wish we could get away with today.
