Here are some of the scholarship style books of the last decades that have some special interest on the general topic of the Reformation Bible, without being King James Bible oriented. While some will have a minefield of anti-KJB bias, perhaps not all, and some solid info can be extractable. Generally you may have to use a library or used book approach to see the whole book but there may some have partial google availability.

An Amazon book review of "A More Sure Word: Which Bible Can You Trust?" by R.B. Ouellette tells us of its good value:
"Just recently the NIV translation committee announced that they will be releasing a new version in 2011 and their exact words were, 'This time we'll get it right.' Amazing! This book cuts through the spider web of conflicting terms and arguments and makes a clear case for choosing the KJV."
