Descripción editorial
The Journal of Discourses (often abbreviated J.D.) is a 26-volume collection of public sermons by early leaders of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). The first editions of the Journal were published in England by George D. Watt, the stenographer of Brigham Young. Publication began in 1854, with the endorsement of the church's First Presidency, and ended in 1886. The Journal is one of the richest sources of early Mormon theology and thinking. It includes 1,438 sermons given by 55 church leaders, including most numerously Brigham Young, John Taylor, Orson Pratt, Heber C. Kimball, and George Q. Cannon.

My sentiments exactly!
Just downloaded this treasure today. It will be a nice compliment to the other church works I have on my new iPod. Because of the number of volumns in the set, some searches--as I suspected after performing a few--are necessarily slow. However, the trade-off is that as each new occurance is found, it is displayed as a clip of the paragraph the search term appears in, with the search term in bold. Naturally, one can click on the clip and be taken to the volumn and page the search term appears in. No waiting for the complete search to finish. I'm giving this five stars!
Finally! A complete and navigable version for my iPad!
So happy to find this. Description is completely accurate - All 26 Volumes, some 6.2 MILLION words - thoroughly hyperlinked and indexed. Awesome!!
