You can probably get it from a retailer, or buy iworks from apple. Textedit can be setup to make an RTF file, and be used as a decent word processor. Also, you can download abiword which is a free word program.
AppleWorks was good back in 1995. Nowadays, AppleWorks is pretty much dead, and hasn't been updated in years.
iWork and Microsoft Office are better, but if you want a free option, OpenOffice is a good idea:

or grab AppleWorks 6 from the applications folder on any early iMac (OS 9.0.4) install disc, and then update from Apple.

The last time I was in one of the Apple retail stores, they were still selling Appleworks 6.2.9, which I thought was weird considering the iWork program has been out awhile. MacMall sells it too.
I use it all the time, and find it to be generally fine, except for the occasional bug, especially with the "drawing" feature. Oh well. . .
