yes....go to cross-dress.com and order the book called the art of illusion. it is a great how-to book on TG/CD makeup. that is how i learned to do mine. the book cost me about 10 yrs ago about $15. i know its more now. or go to suddenlyfem.com. they have a number of books on makeup for the CD/TG community

I thought this was an interesting Q so I decided to do a quick web search for you. Here's what I found:
The Drag Queen's Cookbook and Guide to Sensible Living http://www.rambles.net/campe_drag.html (great review)
and a movie: The Queen, behind the scenes look and interview w/ drag queens

Try getting a book from Kevin Aucoin called "making faces"...He was one of the best make-up artists in the world. God rest his soul. He's terribly missed. In this book he paint's the faces of many celebrities like Cher, Drew Barrymore, Lisa Marie Presley, Isabella Rossellini & many others... He made Lisa Marie look like Marilyn Monroe, Isabella like Barbara Streisand, Drew like a 1940's starlet. It's the best make up book ever made.

These sites are more for drag queens in a flamboyant fashion, than one for blending into a crowd, but I'm not sure what you're looking for:

http://www.amazon.com/Miss-Veras-Cross-Dress-Success-Resource/dp/0812991958/sr=8-9/qid=1162875247/ref=pd_bbs_9/104-6747574-6088722?ie=UTF8&s=books
'Making Faces' is also good, but not particularly for drag queens.
Sorry that I can't find any more, but I'm sure you'll look gorgeous.

Aucoin's book, "Making Faces," does include a 'transformation' example where a guy is made over to look like a girl.
http://www.cross-dressing-guide.com/ offers a guide covering the whole package, including makeup, but I don't know how good it is.

Just looked on Froogle under:
drag queen beauty book
with no success.
I might have been using cruddy terms, however, so I'd try it out myself and see what happens
