When I Went West: From The Bad Lands To California is a memoir written by Robert D. McGonnigle and published in 1901. The book details the author's experiences as a young man traveling from his home in Pennsylvania to the wild and untamed western United States in the late 1800s. McGonnigle describes his adventures in the Badlands of North Dakota, where he worked as a ranch hand and hunted buffalo. He then travels to California, where he works in the gold mines and experiences the excitement of the booming western economy. The book is a firsthand account of life in the American West during a time of great change and exploration, and provides a unique perspective on the history of the region.
