This work, dedicated to George M. Sowers, looks at the definition and history of laccoliths. Chapters deal with laccolith genesis, gravity and magnetic surveys of laccoliths (including testing of Gilbert's 1877 hypothesis for density control of emplacement level), the four stages of laccolith emplacement and growth, and continuum solutions for the mechanics of laccolith growth. Three appendices are provided: a valuable gazetteer of known laccoliths; definitions of descriptive terms; and notations used for laccolith models.
