Is it possible allow a user to go from a link to a particular page type to a Internet Archive BookReader display to allow the user to browse the JPEG images associated with the page type like they would browse a printed book.

This should allow the following functionality

search the book for terms or phrases and
highlight the matching terms or phrases on the images displayed on-screen
allow the Wagtail link to link into searching for a particular term or phrase
allow user to tab through matches for the term or phrase
allow user to select a Share action that can allow the user to share a permanent identifier URL for the whole book or relevant page in the book via email or social media
