Kiwix

Kiwix is an offline reader for Web content. It's especially intended to make Wikipedia available offline.

With Kiwix, you can enjoy Wikipedia on a boat, in the middle of nowhere... or in Jail.

Kiwix manages to do that by reading ZIM files, a highly compressed open format with additional meta-data.
