Stephen C. Voorhees has written: 'Lassen Volcanic National Park'
The volcanism at Lassen National Park is caused by convergent plate tectonics, specifically the subduction of the Gorda Plate under the North American Plate.

Lassen Volcanic National Park is centered on Lassen Peak, a volcano that is part of the Cascade Volcanic Arc, which stretches from northern California to southern British Columbia. The volcanic acivity here is a result of the Cascadia Subduction Zone, a boundary where two of earth's tectonic plates meet off the Pacific coast. Here, the Juan De Fuca Plate, located under the Pacific Ocean is slowly sliding into and under the North American Plate, taking some seawater with it. The seawater seeps into the hot rocks of the mantle, causing some of them to melt into magma and rise through ths crust, forming volcanoes.
