The Park also has an educational book called Painted Rocks.  The book tells a story for young and old about the Kumeyaay Indians and their drawings at Piedras Pintadas.  Ruth Alter, author and anthropologist, presents both an intriguing and an accurate account of these Native Americans.

New for 2004:

Ron Hall, long-term River Park volunteer and Sikes Adobe docent, has authored a book entitled, "Ancestors and Descendants of Zenas Sikes, Jr." The proceeds from sales of the book were donated by Ron to the San Dieguito River Park for use at the Sikes Adobe Historic Farmhouse.

Copies may be purchased from the River Park for $25 in person or $30 if mailed.

The book is a compilation of research by Ron, who tracked down an amazing number of living Sikes descendants, and the efforts of Arthur M. Sikes, and Perrin Weston-Coman. Perrin, whose research was on behalf of San Diego County Committee of the National Society of Colonial Dames of America in California, was responsible for the breakthrough contact with Arthur M. Sikes, whose comprehensive family genealogy begins in 13th Century England and ends with Zenas Sikes' generation in late 1800s America. She was also responsible for a watershed of information about Eliza's Burrell's family history through the discovery of the "Burrell Letters" archived in Stockton, Calif."
