In another thread much was said by another poster that the greed of Florida farmers led to much privation and hunger in the Confederate army. Actually Florida was a major provider of food to the Confederate army – primarily beef. It was Florida not Texas that furnished the most beef to the Confederate armies – especially in the eastern theatre.
