These books might give you a glimpse into mathematics education in earlier times. Feel free to explore them further by clicking on the titles. Let me know if you need more information or if there's anything specific you are looking for!

which one do you recommand?

If you're interested in arithmetic, I would recommend "Leerboek der rekenkunde : ten gebruike bij het onderwijs voor ambachtslieden en op herhalingsscholen" (1913). This book provides a comprehensive introduction to arithmetic and was designed for teaching craftsmen and on review schools. It could be a great resource for understanding the fundamentals of arithmetic and how it was taught in the past.

However, if you prefer algebra, then "Leerboek der algebra : ten gebruike bij het onderwijs voor ambachtslieden" (1910) would be a suitable choice. This book focuses specifically on algebra and was used for teaching craftsmen. It could be interesting to explore how algebra was taught and applied in practical contexts.

Ultimately, the choice depends on your personal interests and which branch of mathematics you're more inclined towards. Both books offer valuable insights into different areas of mathematics education.
