You can ask the KAJ office but it does not ring a bell and we usually advertise any such seforim they are putting out.

Different Rav Breuer. Rav Mordechai Breuer who wrote the sefer on taamei hamikra was the nephew of Rav Yosef Breuer of KAJ. (He was the son of Samson Breuer.)

In any event, I think this is what you're looking for:

I probably should have been clearer. I wanted to know if anyone can tell me who translated it or anything else about it in that regard. I find it interesting, as the market for the book, people who would read it in English and not in Hebrew, seems quite small.

Well, the last significant books written on this topic before Rav Breuer's book, which he mentions in his introduction, were those of William Wickes, which were written in English.
See https://onlinebooks.library.upenn.edu/webbin/book/lookupname?key=Wickes%2C%20William%2C%201817%3F%2D1903

Wickes was not Jewish, but he makes reference to the works of Heidenheim on Baer on the topic, which were written in Hebrew.
