This translation is mostly the KJV, but includes changes  to replace misspelled words,  obsolete words, obscure words, and  makes changes when the meaning conflicts with the consensus of the majority of other translations, especially the Dead Sea Scrolls which are known to originate some 600 years earlier. In general, I found the KJV by far the best, the only sensible translation to build upon.  The so-called modern translations often  failed to recognize the importance of many metaphors  and other literary devices that their so called "modern reading" changed  to meaningless junk.  This translation incorporates the best of the following sources:

The Revised Standard Version
The Jewish Publication Society of America Version
The C. F. Keil, F. Delitzsch Version 
Joseph Smith's "New Translation" of the Bible
The New International Version
