The book noted is: Portrait of a Flying Lady, by George H. Menzel, Turner Publishing Co., 412 Broadway,  PO Box 3101, Padukah, Ky, 42002-3101, ISBN: 156311-136-5, LOC 94-60145  phone (502) 443-0121.

I can't tell you if it's out of print or not, but if so may be available through on-line book stores or military book stores like abebooks.com.

The book is mostly 1st-hand 401BG Unit history related, but has a special (and rather large) section about this little known history - 401BG aircrews landing in Russia - their story.

Great book in my opinion - both parts.
