English Annotation by Vishnudut1926 (written in November, 2014): Another masterpiece translation and glosses by Jankinath Kaul Kamal (earlier I have published "Shree Indrakshi Stotra" translated and annotated by him - link to E-Book).

This is the kind of the book you always place at the first place in your electronic reader in order either to re-read the book all your life or just to read several pages at random every day.
For me "Shree Lakshmi-Tantra", "Shreemati Lalita-Devi Sahasranam" with Acharya Bhaskararaya Tikas (link to E-BOOK) and "Shreemati Bhavani-Devi Sahasranam" are The Books of this kind. 
The glosses are very incredible. 

Even if you are incredibly mad about "Shree MahaLakshmi-Devi Sahasranam" or "Shree Durga-Devi Sahasranam" or "Shree MahaSaraswati-Devi Sahasranam" or "Shree Shyamala-Devi Sahasranam" rush to study "Shree Bhavani Sahasranam" in this translation! 

Unfortunately, I have no place for including "Shreemati Bhavani-Devi Sahasranam" in my Bhakti-Sadhana, but if you are floating in search for The Sahasranam of The Adi-Shakti (Deva-Devika) you wish to learn and adhere to for all your life, then "Shree Bhavani Nama Sahasra Stuti" will be the option of the best choice. 

CRUCIAL: The knowledge of Sanskrit and the knowledge of Nyasas is strictly demanded for reciting "Shree Bhavani Nama Sahasra Stuti". 

By the way if you know Sanskrit, you will notice that "Shree Bhavani Sahasranam" starts from the following very beautiful and rather unusual Mantra:
