Description

Since its establishment in 1683, Perth Amboy has been a progressive and welcoming community. Residents have consistently made a stand for equality—in the 1920s, riots at a local KKK meeting ousted the Klan for good, and the nation’s first African American vote was cast here by Thomas Mundy Peterson. Another Perth Amboy first was Dr. Solomon Andrews’s flight over the town in 1863. Since 1853, the Eagleswood School has hosted lectures from figures like Henry David Thoreau. In 1968, the Perth Amboy basketball team swept the state championship. These and Perth Amboy’s other fascinating stories and characters are chronicled by local author Katherine Massopust.

Author Biography:

Katherine Massopust works for the Amboy Guardian Newspaper. She has served as the secretary for the Kearny Cottage Historical Society, and is also currently a member of the Perth Amboy Historic Preservation Commission, the Proprietary House Association, and the Historic Ferry Slip.
