A remarkable resource for studying Blake
Blakes illustrated books are fantastic, but seeing them is not always easy. This app gives us access to high res reproductions of the writing and illustration - if you are curious about what these books really look like, this app gets close. You can zoom in very close on details to get a really good look! The inclusion of typeset versions of all the poems is great too -
I can’t recommend this highly enough, for artists, writers, diarists, anyone with an interest in books and illumination. I hope we’ll start to see more of these kind of apps.

Fabulous! But please add a Search Feature for finding passages
Title says it all. Thank you for this wonderful vehicle for exploring Blake’s amazing Jerusalem, but please add a search feature so that we can easily locate favorite passages when we cannot recall where they are, but can recall some key words in the passages, or a phrase or line we can recall, and want/need to see again the full original context, to review it. Thank you.

Swell
I'm glad to have it
Stunning
A fantastic adaption of this mystic book. Recommended download.
A True Gem!
This is an amazing app, and a must-have for anyone interested in William Blake and the art of the book.
Dazzling
Stunning app. Design is beautiful and makes a delightful experience of Blake's difficult poem. Thank you for creating this app! :)
Highly recommended
Very well done. The images are high enough quality to allow reading of the text of the work itself from the images as well as allowing enjoyment of the details of Blake's artwork. In cases where the original text is difficult to read, the app allows a nice quick toggle to typed text. Very easy to toggle back and forth...so seamless. Please do more of Blake's works like this.

Beautiful!
Full, beautiful images of this illustrated work. So that you don't have to struggle to read the handwritten text within Blake's illustrations, the text also scrolls at left of the illustrated pages (landscape mode). In portrait mode the illustrations take up the full screen, and you can toggle between the image and the text. Nicely done!
