The majority of the Wikipedia apps for the iPhone don't actually have an offline copy they just provide a nicer interface. Wikipedia itself is very large. Last I checked (a few years ago) or was over 4 GB of just text.

Any reader is going to have trouble with a book that large. Not to mention most readers don't have a very robust search feature.
