With the death of Queen Elizabeth I, Prince James VI of Scotland became King James I of England. The Protestant clergy approached the new King in 1604 and announced their desire for a new translation to replace the Bishop's Bible first printed in 1565.

This "translation to end all translations" became the most printed book in the history of the world. In fact, for around 250 years -- until the appearances of the Revised Version of 1881 -- the King James Version reigned without rival.
