Richard Trevino, Jr.’s Autobiography “The True Story of Legion” Will Be Displayed at the 2024 L.A. Times Festival of Books

The Los Angeles Times Festival of Books showcases the beauty of literature and culture, bringing together the best books and activities for all its attendees. ReadersMagnet, an esteemed platform for independent authors, will showcase The True Story of Legion: A Texans Adventure in the French Foreign Legion by Richard Trevino Jr at the L.A. Times Festival of Books 2024. The literary festival will occur on April 20-21, 2024, at the University of Southern California campus in Los Angeles, USA.

The True Story of Legion tells the story of a man who had his feelings bottled up for too long. Not able to tell his family why he did the things he did and not able to recoup the lost years away from the people he loved. In the Mexican-American community, a man can never show his sadness, his pain, or weakness. As an act of pride, men always keep all their emotions to themselves as if nothing is wrong. Showing everyone that they are not suffering and everything is fine is strength. This is what author Richard Trevino Jr felt.

By letting all his bottled feelings in his book, Richard found a way to release the negativities tearing him from within. He considers sharing his life as a form of therapy, making him feel like coming up out of the water and being able to breathe again.

Those who have read Trevino Jr.s book described it as an honest and heartfelt look into a brave mans heart. It is a must-read for military service members and everyone else looking for solace and inspiration in a harsh world.

The True Story of Legion: A Texans Adventure in the French Foreign Legion by Richard Trevino Jr is an insightful narrative about finding ones purpose in a foreign land. Get a copy on Amazon, ReadersMagnet Bookstore, and Barnes & Noble. Visit the ReadersMagnet exhibit at the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books 2024 at booth #225 to check out the books display.
