Richard Trevino, Jr.’s Riveting Autobiography Featuring Life in the French Foreign Legion Exhibited at the Guadalajara International Book Fair 2023
This Guadalajara International Book Fair is a place where many readers in Ibero-America can find plenty of stories. These not only include the most recent releases by familiar publishing houses, but also the works of many new authors from all walks of life. Among these is Texan and former military man Richard Trevino, Jr., who shares both his inner struggles and exciting adventures in his autobiography “Legion: A Texan’s Adventure in the French Foreign Legion.”
This story is about a man who had his feelings bottled up for way 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 who he loved.
For many publishers both in and out of the Americas, the Guadalajara International Book Fair is the last major book fair to exhibit in before the year wraps up. For many book lovers in the city of Guadalajara, it’s the one place to find all sorts of new and exciting stories.
Likewise, former military man Richard Trevino, Jr. had just the tale for those looking for real-life accounts of military action, adventure, and personal transformation.
He told it all via his autobiography “Legion: A Texan’s Adventure in the French Foreign Legion.” The book was recently displayed at the Guadalajara International Book Fair with the help of ReadersMagnet, a book marketing and self-publishing company.
In popular imagination, the French Foreign Legion remains to be the stuff of classical movies. But in his account, Trevino shows that the legion is very much alive and rich with its own dynamic military tradition.
Born in the oil and ranch region of South Texas, Trevino grew up with all the poverty and hardship experienced by many Mexican-Americans. He was taught to grow up tough and to never show emotional weakness.
“Legion: A Texan’s Adventure in the French Foreign Legion” came about as he finally had the courage to share his thoughts and feelings after decades of burying everything within. His life after entering the U.S. Army and then the French Foreign Legion brought him to many places around the world but also had him involved in things he once deemed unspeakable.
Yet, in the telling of his story, he came to realize that it was possible to have a life that was better than most yet also worse than most at the same time. He hopes that his story offers people a new perspective on military life as well as how they perceive their own.
“Legion: A Texan’s Adventure in the French Foreign Legion” by Richard Trevino, Jr. is available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and ReadersMagnet Bookstore.

Born in the oil and ranch region of South Texas in a small town called Alice, the birthplace of Tejano music, to a poor working-class family. There was no work for his family in Alice in the early 70s, and subsequently having to move to San Marcos, which is on the edge of the Texas Hill Country, looking for better jobs and better opportunities for the small family. As a young boy, he yearned for adventure and always wanted to see the world.
Having to grow up as a ranch hand gave Richard the strength and determination to be persistent in life. To adapt to any situation and to move forward in life no matter what the situation. Qualities that he would need later in life after joining the US Army and the French Army.
From the hills of Korea to the deserts of Africa he has roamed. You know to some people he’s the unluckiest guy in the world but to others, he’s the luckiest S.O.B. you’ll ever meet. Either way, you see it he is Richard Trevino Jr. from a small town in Texas and he is very happy that readers are taking the time to read his little story about his life.
