You might want to check your local public library. I seem to recall there were books published on programming the Apple II series in BASIC, so a library might have a copy of such a book. If you can't find something at a library, perhaps somebody is selling such a book on eBay…

Here are 2 links that might help, you are looking for "Applesoft BASIC"

Applesoft BASIC Reference (calo rmen.com/applesoft/reference.htm)
Apple II Programmer's Reference: Applesoft Commands (land snail.com/a2ref.htm)

What do you want to know? I used to write programs for it in BASIC.

Search for Virtual Apple ][, and you will see a ton of programs (MOSTLY games) for it.
