Brian Sarnacki (University of Nebraska, Lincoln) has created a tutorial for beginners interested in using the visualization tool Gephi (Mac users having trouble with Gephi should start here). Sarnacki provides a sample CSV file that lists bankers in Grand Rapids in 1902, and walks through the process of prepping data, importing the CSV file into Gephi, and creating and fine-tuning visualizations.
