Well, I guess when you installed FreeBSD, there's a good chance that the
hanbook that was current at the time your FreeBSD version was released, has
been installed on your machine under /usr/share/doc/handbook. It should all
be in HTML format, and you will find many more information under
/usr/share/doc.

If you want the "current" version of the handbook, you can get it "up to
the minute" with CVSup. Certainly there will also be a snapshot available
on the FreeBSD FTP servers.

Greetings
Nils
