My favorite author is Jane Austen and I love that time period in which she wrote so I thought I'd make a CAF dice game using some of the pastimes, occupations, and names from the late 1700's to early 1800's when Ms. Austen wrote her six novels and many short stories. You'll need a six-sided dice so I've put a link to an electronic one below. Follow my directions and have fun! :)
