Author Catherine A. Harper wrote a biography entitled, George Bird Evans: Life of a Shooting Gentleman.  The book was published by Prairie Wind Press, Wintersect, Iowa in 1999.  George and Kay totally supported her work by recording answers to her questions, by participating in hours of phone interviews and by hosting personal visits by Cathy.  Sadly, George did not get to see the final product but had read many of the advance chapters.   The book is available through many on-line dealers.  Its ISBN number is 0-967-4646-0-9.
