''The King's General'' is a novel, published in 1946, by English author and playwright Daphne du Maurier. ==Background==
It was the first novel Du Maurier wrote while living at Menabilly, the setting for an earlier novel ''Rebecca'', where it is called 'Manderley'. The writing of the novel was accompanied by prolific research, in which Du Maurier was assisted by Oenone Rashleigh and historian A. L.

The skeleton was thought to belong to a Cavalier of the Civil War because of its clothing.〔〔
