The best that you will find will be the rather spartan run-down in the Red
Manual, and the tutorial which is Raskin's book.

There wasn't ever an Integer BASIC reference manual published by Apple,
mostly because the language was superseded by Applesoft after not too long
(cassette release was in 1977). I'd be surprised if one could find even very
many 3rd-party books on it.

Older editions of The Apple II User's Guide by Lon Poole, et al, have
coverage of Integer BASIC. The newer editions probably do too, but by 1985,
the date of the 3rd edition, most of the coverage was focused on the
enhanced //e and IIc.
