Look for Apache setup tutorial on the Wiki. You probably want to hook  
it through FastCGI. Note, however, that WEBrick is generally a good  
choice for development, and unless you expect heavy loads - even in  
production.

Setting up Apache might be non-trivial, so maybe consider Instant  
Rails, which would effectively do it for you.

The best Rails book is considered to be Agile Web Programming with  
Rails, by the Pragmatic Programmers.
