It turns out the problem wasn't related to the size of the file, but bad html code.
I tired opening the original html file directly from a browser and it crashed as well, but this time it pointed to a line and error. When I looked at the details the file was riddled with this tag (<o:p> </o:p>). I removed the tag and re-opened the file and this time it crashed on a different line with a different formatting error.
I then took the original file (errors and all) and converted from epub to epub as suggested. Not only did the conversion split that one file into multiple files (1 per chapter) it also appears to have cleaned up all the html errors. The book opens perfectly now in my reader.
Thanks for your help!
