You found the 'Gottcha' with backing up using the 'Save to...' or Send to Device. You can't use those for empty books.
You can backup the entire Library Folder using the OS backup tools or Copy command.
You could place a (you will use the same file many times) dummy book into the Metadata formats window (this way does not care what the file name is), then use the Modify EPUB plugin to
update the jacket (inserts the associated cover)
