That's the way we did it with the book we just published. It has the standard licensing blurb that basically says the publisher owns everything, and we simply added a paragraph that says all OSM-derived illustrations are CC-BY-SA (with a link to the CC website). We have no explicit attribution for the individual images because it is obvious from the context that they are OSM. If the book were about something else and OSM was just used (rather than discussed) then I'd recommend to explicitly mark those images which are from OSM.
