There is an interesting article in the current issue of High Country News about how different maps of the Klamath River Basin produce very different perspectives on resource use there:
http://www.hcn.org/servlets/hcn.Article?article_id=10659#
A good case-study in how maps can be used to promote one side of an issue or another (reminiscent of "How to Lie with Maps" by Mark Monmonier).
