The Authorised Version (called the King James Version in the US) did not include the books considered apocryphal. These books are included in the Catholic bible and are not considered to be apocryphal since the Council of Trent's decree on the subject. The books are:
1 Esdras
2 Esdras
Additions to Esther
1 Macabees
2 Macabees
Tobias
Judith
Wisdom
Sirach
Baruch
Epistle of Jeremiah
Susanna
Prayer of Azariah
Prayer of Manasseh
Bel and the Dragon
Laodiceans
The argument about their Deuterocanonical status hinges on their inclusion in the Septuagint - the Greek translation of the Old Testament - but the absence of any equivalent texts for them in Hebrew.

Catholic Bibles contain seven more Old Testament (46) books than Protestant Bibles (39). Catholics refer to these seven books as the ?deuterocanon?[1] (second canon), while Protestants refer to them as ?apocrypha,? a term used pejoratively to describe non-canonical books. Protestants also have shorter versions of Daniel and Esther. Why are there differences?
Tobit, Judith, Maccabees1, Maccabees2, Book of Wisdom, Book of Sirach, and the Book of Baruch.

The KJV is the Bible.
Catholics are not saved and are not Christians.

It was the protestants that removed them.
