| Summary | "Treasures in Heaven" by George C. Lambert is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work is part of the "Faith Promoting Series" and is designed to instruct and encourage young Latter-day Saints through narratives that illuminate the principles of unselfish service and the importance of salvation for the dead. The central figure presented is Niels P.L. Eskildz, whose life story exemplifies faith, perseverance, and a deep commitment to temple work. The opening of the book establishes Niels' challenging beginnings, including a traumatic childhood accident that left him crippled. Despite his physical limitations and the struggles he faced, Niels embraced the teachings of Mormonism after being influenced by a Lutheran priest. The narrative details his journey towards migration to Utah and highlights his dedication to performing vicarious temple work for his ancestors, affirming the belief in salvation for the dead. Niels' steadfastness in faith and service sets the tone for the broader themes of the book, which focus on the value of selfless acts in the pursuit of eternal rewards.
