Montville Summer U: Paterson - A City Like No Other

Talk by Mario Medici

Discover Paterson’s rich history in shaping our nation through slides and lecture. Whether it’s discovering the efforts of Alexander Hamilton, the first United States Secretary of the Treasury, who helped set the framework for harnessing the energy from the Great Falls of the Passaic River to secure economic independence from British manufacturers, or the dozens of silk mills during the middle of the 19th century, or the development of the Colt revolver and the submarine, it all - and much more - happened in Paterson.  Adults only.  Registration required.
