I would try the Oracle Java tutorials.

After that, he might find my site useful.

For example if he wanted to use a button, he could look
at http://mindprod.com/jgloss/jbutton.html

And he would see a short, complete program using it and "gotchas"
(tips of the unexpected). You can do that for all sorts of the common
classes.

Tutorials are great to get started, but are not good for reference.
The official docs are a bit daunting for novices.  My stuff fits in
the middle.
