A Civil War Murder Mystery on Kentucky’s Old Warrior’s Path!

Athiamiowee – A Civil War Journey Home

It was 1865, and the Civi War was over. The Confederate soldier had been released from an Ohio prison.

“Go away,” they say, “we are done with you.”

Walking along what was once called the “Warrior’s Path,” little used now, but which would take him directly south, through the Cumberland Gap and back to his own mountain community. That Gap wouldn’t be hard to find, he had scouted it as a Confederate picket before he had been captured. The Native Americans called that route, “Athiamiowee,” which can be translated to “Path of the Armed Ones.” And so it still was.
