It's also on the live filesystem CD as
/cdrom/usr/share/doc/handbook/handbook.ascii (in ASCII form) or
/cdrom/usr/share/doc/handbook/handbook.html (if you have an
appropriate Web browser).  You can access these documents before
installing FreeBSD, if you have another operating system or DOS on
your machine.
