Hope this helps. =] * all these books seem to not exist, and all the supposed authors of these books are actually names of some of the crew from the movie. so i suppose it's safe to say that none of these books, or websites for that matter, are real.
The correct spelling is "Quileute" from the Twilight series. The Quileute tribe is a fictional Native American tribe depicted in the books.
The Quileute are a small group of native americans, members of the Chimakoan tribe, that are nearly extinct. As far as we have been able to find out, there is no book of specifically Quileute legends, although there are a number of books dealing with the legends of the Pacific Northwest tribes. The best site we have found is listed below.
Jacob Black is a werewolf, Bella's friend, and he has a crush on her. He tells her the Quileute legend. The Quileute legend is all about the cold ones and werewolves and how the rivalry between vampires and werewolves first began.
In the real Quileute Indian legends, there are no such things mentioned about cold ones or vampires. Stephenie Meyer made it up.
If you are referring to the "Cold Ones" as described in the Twilight Saga, it is known from the books that the story of the Cold Ones has been passed down through generations of Quileute Leaders. The younger generations don't believe in the stories and think them to be myths, but those who have the shape-shifting ability or know of the vampires believe them to be true. In reality however, there is no Quileute legend referring to the "Cold Ones". The legend was created by the author of the Twilight Saga, Stephenie Meyer. It is however true that in legend the Quileute Tribe is descended from wolves.
I 'm An Actual Quileute And Have Lived In Lapush On And Off Throughout my Life. Yeah Our Legend Says That We Descended From Wolves. Our First Tribal Member Was Transformed From A Wolf By K'wa'iti Into A Human.La Push Washington to the right, 12 miles from Forks Washington is home to the Quileute Tribe. According to legend, the tribe was created from wolves by a supernatural transformer. The tribe's lineage stretches back thousands of years to the Ice Age, making them possibly the oldest inhabitants of the Pacific Northwest.Important Quileute Mythological FiguresQ'wati(also spelled K'wati, Kweheti, Kwatee, Q'waeti, K'wa'iti, Qati, Kwati, Qwati, and several other ways.) Q'wati is the benevolent culture hero of Quileute legends, frequently referred to in English as the Transformer. His name is pronounced similar to kwatt-ee, only the "k" is pronounced further back in the throat than English "k" and with a catch in the throat after it. The same character is called Dukwibal or Dokibatt in the Puget Sound Salish tribes, Xelas or Haylas in the Coast Salish tribes, and Misp' or Musp in the Quinault tribe. Q'wati is usually credited with creating the Quileute tribe and their neighbors, teaching them right behavior and cultural skills, and protecting them by changing the environment and getting rid of monsters.Raven (Bayaq or Bayak, in the Quileute language.) Raven is the trickster figure of Quileute legends. His name is pronounced similar to bah-yuck in Quileute. Raven is a clever and generally benign figure who sometimes helps humankind, but he also has many character traits that are viewed negatively in Quileute culture (greed, laziness, arrogance, deceitfulness, and rudeness) and many Quileute legends have to do with Raven misbehaving and getting into trouble because of it.Thunderbird (T'ist'ilal or Tistilal, in the Quileute language.) The Thunderbird is an important figure throughout Northwest Coast mythology. In Quileute, its name is pronounced similar to tiss-tih-lall. The Thunderbird is described by the Quileutes as a bird large enough to carry a whale in its claws, whose beating wings make thunder.Dask'iya (also spelled Dassk'iya, Daskiya, and other ways.) Dask'iya is a cannibal ogress in Quileute stories, sometimes known as a "basket ogress" or "basket woman." She is said to capture children in her basket and carry them home to eat them. Legends about Dask'iya are told to frighten Quileute children and warn them away from bad behavior. Her name is pronounced similar to dusk-ee-yuh. Are the "Cold Ones" from Twilight a real Quileute legend?No. There are no Quileute legends about "Cold Ones" or other vampires. Stephenie Meyer, the author of the "Twilight" books, has stated that she made this fictional vampire legend up herself and only had her Quileute character tell it for the purposes of her plot. However, she did base other parts of her books on real Quileute mythology. For example, it is true that according to legend the Quileute tribe is descended from wolves who were changed into men. Even the tribal name "Quileute" comes from their word for wolf, Kwoli.

Technically, it depends on whether you believe in legends or not. The ancient Quileute legend exists, but...
you can't find it anywhere I searched for it and I couldn't find answers about it that means that Stephanie Made up the stories of the colds one but the Quileute legends of themthat decent from wolves is true
There is most likely not the exact book, but there is many books about Quileute Legends if you are interested in reading the Legends. Also, there is various websites that include the legends.
No, the concept of imprinting as depicted in the Twilight book series is a fictional creation by the author, Stephenie Meyer. It is not based on any actual Quileute legend or belief.
