I went ahead and installed the FreeBSD handbook onto my system and I was
able to find it on disk per the motd notes but I'm wondering if there is a
preferred method for reading these since they are in html format. I tried
w3m and lynx and it looks like they are both not installed. Is there
something i'm missing for reading these or do I just need to install a cli
browser?

--As for the rest, it is mine.

You'd need to install a cli browser, for the standard install. (Or a PDF viewer, IIRC.)

You can go back and change your options for the handbook port if you want as well - one of the other options is to install it in plain text format, either as well or instead. (Other formats there are options for include PDF, Postscript, and a couple of HTML options.)
