Learning Math from Old Hard Books

Does any one have a syllabus for how math was taught in UK in the 1800s?

For example, a curriculum from the time that made use of the following book (as an example), Toddhunters Treatise on Differential Calculus:

I recall seeing a detailed answer where a precalculus syllabus of books (totalling like 3,000 pages) was posted, but I cannot find it.

Wondering if someone could outline a way to go about this?

I am interested in exploring the old way of learning math as a matter of personal interest.

Thanks!
