I've never actually used iTunes to manage my ebooks but from experience, all iBooks files gets copied to iTunes when I do Right-Click >> Transfer Purchases on the iOS device in iTunes. I really just do the transfer purchases so I don't have to re-download large apps, etc on iTunes but I've noticed doing so also transferred ebooks (including non-iBooks epub files) to iTunes.

This is likely your best option in the long run.
