[MR] trying to find a square/rectangular canvass tent

[Dexter Guptill]

That tent is good for anywhere from Roman to World War I. I do 1600s

> Hey Dexter, what amde you choose a civil war looking tent over the medieval ones?  I also want ease to set up alone and sturdy.  I saw quite a few tents in Pennsic but I am not willing to spending 1000s  but want it to last for years though and be able to fit in a car as well as a truck with my fighting gear and garb etc
