Frank E. Vandiver, "Texas and the Confederate Army's Meat
Problem," has for permanent address 1208 Castle Hill, Austin,

federacy, specializing on its food problems. All of his Confed-

dell. He has published in the William and Mary College Quar-
terly, Louisiana Historical Quarterly, and Tyler's Quarterly
Historical and Genealogical Magazine.

Wavell's Colony in Texas," is the dean of Texas historians. See
