I'm no guru whatsoever, but thinking that 8.5X11inch is letter size
wouldn't the following do what you ask?
\documentclass[landscape, twocolumn]{book}

But I think you're better of using the geometry package, and define the
page size as being 8.5 x 5.5 inch portrait and use psnup and psbook to
sort and orede the actual pages of your booklet and place them on a
letter sized print sheet?
\documentclass{book}
\usespackage[papersize={8.5in,5.5in}]{geometry}
try:
texdoc geometry
man psnup
man psbook
and be surprised by what is possible.
