Mostly it does.

The 'BSD basics' are covered here:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/design-44bsd/

This is probably still the best place to start - especially if you
read faster in a language other than English, note the
'en_US..'.  There are other languages.
The FreeBSD.org site also has the 'man' pages and handbook.

DragonFlyBSD has their own versions on the wiki as well:

http://wiki.dragonflybsd.org

The differences between DragonFly and other BSD's, especially
FreeBSD 4.8, originally the closest, are explained here:

Look under 'Goals' for the 'meat' and the 'casus belli' for branching.

HTH,
