I found this online:

Sahih Bukhari E book description
Sahih Bukhari E-book is the complete version of Sahih Bukhari
Sahih Bukhari E-book is the complete version of Sahih Bukhari; which
has been translated into English By Sheik Muhsin Khan.
Just curious to know your thoughts (is it valid or a fake one?)
I'm desperate for E-Books like the above which have a comprehensive search for a web blog project i'm busy with, so the above fits my needs perfectly, just need someone more learned to make sure its valid and not a fake copy.
Answer
Muhtaram / Muhtaramah
In the Name of Allāh, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāh wa-barakātuh.
The translation of Sahih Bukhari by Muhsin Khan is quite famous, and we are not aware of any serious errors therein. We are working on the general assumption that had there been serious errors it would have surfaced by now.
However, an endorsement will require us to go through the full work line by line. Unfortunately, time does not allow us to do so, hence we can only reply on a general assumption.
And Allah Ta’ala knows best.
