This link goes to the recent article in _The Atlantic_, discussing the
shenanigans with post-census redistricting:
<http://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2012/10/the-league-of/309084/>.

Within that article is a link to an earlier magazine presentation, "The
Twisted History of Gerrymandering in American Politics":
<http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2012/09/the-long-twisted-history-of-gerrymandering-in-american-politics/262369/>.

I did not notice direct reference to any of Mark Monmonier's work, such
as _Bushmanders & Bullwinkles_.
