If your'e working on a book in spread form, it's pretty easy to explain that portrait is better as it is easier to hold and turn pages when open. Wide format works for photobooks and coffee table books because they are often placed on a table, and don't need to be held.
My Type 1 teacher way back did explain that landscape is amateurish and should be avoided for anything professional or for literature, but I don't know of any famous quote or principle regarding orientation.
