There are 3 main tribes you should be looking for Serrano, Chemehuevi, Cahuilla.
The best books are from the Malki Museum. I would start with these little booklets. There is one for each tribe that lived in and around the park. Look around at what else they have, they have everything from oral history to myths and legends.
If you want to read a ripping yarn around the campfire nothing beats the Willy Boy story.
If you like creation stories True Tales of the Mojave: From Talking Rocks to Yucca Man by Peter Wild is really great. Again reading them while you are in the area really brings the stories to life.
If you want a happy ending, the story of the Chemehuevi has them hitting rock bottom, and then reviving their culture at the end of the 20th century. A Chemehuevi Song: The Resilience of a Southern Paiute Tribe by Clifford Trafzer
If I was to pick one I would get the Yucca Man book. It presents well as a gift. It is a very high quality printing.
