Are there any surviving military textbooks from the Napoleonic era?

Question

Napoleon attended school for military officers, so it stands to reason they would have some books around which they based their curriculum. Are there any complete and publicly available recordings of such books (from any nation at this time period) available?

Hello!

Yes, some drill manuals still exist! Here is a British manual: http://www.redcoat.org/docs/exercise01.pdf

I couldn't find any examples of text books available online. They existed in the time, but the actual drill manuals of each army is more important.
