Legion follows Richard Trevino Jr. as he embarks on a journey with the French Legion for adventure, leaving his family behind without telling them anything. This book also tells about the feelings that bottled up for way too long for not being able to tell his family why he did the things he did and not being able to recoup the lost years away from the people he loved dearly.
Richard joined the U.S. Army and was assigned to Iraq. Despite being in an active war, he still connected with his family. After his time in Iraq, he went home and spent his time around town.
When another opportunity came, this time from the French Legion, he had his name enlisted as he craved the adventure of being in the military. This time, he didnt tell anyone in his family. He followed his desires and joined the French Legion.
Richard Trevino Jr. wrote this book as an apology for what he did. Writing his story served as therapy for everything he went through to release any negative feelings that had been inside his head for quite some time. He had no regrets about embarking on a journey and fulfilling what he always wanted.

Richard A. Porter, a follower of Christ who is originally from Connecticut and runs the YouTube channel, “Unity in Christ,” has completed his new book, “Behind the Stone: Abiding in the Will of God”: a powerful reflection of the author’s journey in his faith as well as his teachings on the importance of living one’s life in accordance with Christ’s will. “With both eyes searching and with one finger typing, I heard through the Spirit, ‘This book will be the best of its kind,’” writes Porter. “The problem with spelling out the truth is that many churches will not handle the weight of this book’s convictions. Our faith does not always correspond with the Gospel’s truth. However, a ‘new crop’ is here and will awaken believers to the Gospel promises. Through the revelations the Holy Spirit puts into their hearts, they will have the ability to stand upright in Christ. Prepare your ground for the young men and women who will be highly favored by God. “Smaller in number are the evil standing against our Father’s perfect design, but their unity overpowers Christianity plagued by division. These pages present the opportunity to become one with our Holy Father in becoming one ‘Behind the Stone.’” Published by Covenant Books of Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, Richard A. Porter’s new book is an enlightening journey designed to help readers open their hearts and minds to Christ’s messages of love and direct the Lord’s followers back to his everlasting light of salvation. Through his writings, “Behind the Stone” explores the importance of staying obedient and is a must-read for those desiring to live a fruitful and sanctified life in Jesus Christ.

Covenant Books Categories Fulton Books author Richard Bott, who retired from the United States Air Force as a Master Sergeant in 1992, has completed his most recent book, “Life as a Cat”: an engaging tale of a cat, named Freddy, who lives with other cats with their owner, known to them as Lady, and goes on frequent adventures with his family to keep them safe. After receiving his Bachelor of Social Work degree from New Mexico State University in May of 2000, Bott moved with his family to Georgia from New Mexico to begin a new start and worked as a nursing home social worker for sixteen years. Bott also was a country radio morning person at WLYU, Lyons Georgia before finally retiring for good in 2017. The author has been telling stories about his experiences most of his life, and, with time on his hands from retirement and the pandemic, he began to put down on paper his colorful stories about his life’s experiences. “Only cats know what it’s like to be a cat—each of us with our own personality,” writes Bott. “A cat’s life can be complicated and sometimes even dangerous. In cat society, dogs and wild critters are not the only dangers we fear. There is another that is more treacherous than any animal, and that is human beings. Humans tend to be either our friends or our mortal enemies. We can become a much-loved house cat or be part of a one-way ride out of town to be dumped on the side of the road. Our fate lies with luck and the ability to survive. Thank goodness for nine lives. Fortunately, we have human friends who really do care for all cats. The Lady is one of those humans who would do almost anything to assist a cat in need. Those cats that live with the Lady are the cream of the crop. By telling their stories, as only a cat can, will the true meaning of a cat’s life be discovered? “Every story needs a hero. Cat stories are no different. There is one of the Lady’s cats that is much loved by all the neighborhood cats. When there is any trouble that involves the neighborhood cat population, you will find this thick-furred brown tomcat always in the thick of things. Although not a superhero, he uses his nine lives well.” Published by Fulton Books, Richard Bott’s book is partly inspired by the author’s wife, Shirley, who was so obsessed with cats that his home in Alamogordo, New Mexico, proved to be a true cat sanctuary and was the Lady of the neighborhood. Captivating and brimming with interesting and dynamic characters, “Life as a Cat” is sure to delight readers as they follow Freddy and the cats’ adventures, and their shared love of their beloved Lady. Readers who wish to experience this enthralling work can purchase “Life as a Cat” online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.
