The idea of taking children through the door of history and introducing them to the past is by no means new, but Miss Streatfeild's manner of performing this miracle [in The Fearless Treasure] is unusual…. The sights, sounds and smells of the past are brought vividly to life, and in each historical 'picture' one of the children recognizes his or her ancestor…. Miss Streatfeild has evidently written this book with the idea of inspiring the new "young Elizabethans" with an ideal to live for, through an understanding of their past. I think she has succeeded in presenting the past very clearly and in giving children a sense of the continuity and importance of their heritage, and their need of sympathy and tolerance in the making of a new generation.
