PERTH AMBOY – “The Bombardment of Perth Amboy 1776” is our brand new documentary to be aired on our local Comcast Channel 34 Television.   Here we bring to life the experiences of Perth Amboy 239 years ago.

General George Washington viewed Perth Amboy as playing a pivotal role in the Revolutionary War.   And during 1776 all eyes turned to New Jersey’s colonial capital as America’s War For Independence exploded in our streets and on our bay.

We have unearthed eyewitness accounts of this saga scattered in numerous archives across the country have used them along with many rare colonial images to create the foundation of our film.

Unlike some of our previous works, this documentary will not be released on DVD, so you will have to check Channel 34’s TV schedule for the viewing times.   Please tune in and enjoy!

— John Kerry Dyke, producer and the entire film crew
