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.
