An unexpected copyrighted book

The Telegraph has a New Year Literary Quiz.  I won't duplicate it here; those interested can take the quiz (and view the answers) at the link.  But I will blog this most curious item:

Question:   Which 1611 book is still not out of copyright in Britain — because the rights are held in perpetuity by the British Crown?

Answer:  The King James Bible (or Authorised Version)
