Think of a Lisp-like language with a syntax more like Pascal.

You can get a partial answer by exploring the following
http://www.cogs.susx.ac.uk/users/adrianh/pop11.html
Overview of Pop-11
http://www.cogs.susx.ac.uk/users/adrianh/poplog.html
Overview of Poplog
ftp://ftp.cs.bham.ac.uk/pub/dist/poplog/
This contains
teach/primer
text version of a Pop-11 primer
primer.Z
compressed version of plain text primer
primer.ps.Z
postscript version for printing the primer on
252 (approx) A4 pages
primer_2page.ps.Z
postscript version for printing two pages per sheet
on about 126 (approx) A4 pages
The README file gives more information.
The teach/ subdirectory includes a lot of stuff used for
teaching AI in Pop-11
The prb/ and sim/ sub-directories contain stuff for an agent
simulation toolkit in pop-11.
The file teach/pop11.evolution gives an account of the
history of Pop-11, which developed out of the Edinburgh AI
language, Pop-2.
I hope that helps.
