I see little relevance to the proposed project, but if you're going to
spend money on a KJV history, get the current, authoritative one:
http://www.amazon.com/Textual-History-King-James-Bible/dp/0521771005/
If you want to read the book David links to, I'd rather recommend
checking it out for free:

Before even contemplating starting such a project, it is advisable to become
acquainted with the detailed textual history of the Authorised Version.
Suggest obtain this book by F H A Scrivener.
*The Authorized Version of the English Bible (1611): Its Subsequent Reprints
and Modern Representatives*
http://www.amazon.com/Authorized-Version-English-Bible-Representatives/dp/1592446345/
The book will help you understand why the hosted KJV module is based on the
1769 Edition, as are all modern printed AV Bibles.
Refer also to the CrossWire FAQ item on this topic.
