Best books on Football Officiating?

[stegenref]

I'm currently finishing up reading a few different books and trying to decide what to read next. I was wondering what books you guys think are most valuable...other than the NFHS rules book, mechanics book, and case book, obviously.

I would check out the Redding Guide for NFHS rules, that is a fairly comprehensive interpretation manual with additional case plays, in depth explanations of rules, etc. I also found the rules by topic book to be helpful as well.

Redding's guide is by far #1. The simplified and illustrated is ok. Useful for very green officials, but after year 1, it's not that great.

I have Redding's guide and I think it is a great book. But, I read the NFHS rule and case book more than any supplementary book.
