Volume 13 (1805) reveals how, following Napoleon's coronation as Emperor and the outbreak of war with Spain, fears of invasion grew stronger. Parliament greatly increased expenditure on the Navy, but the lengthy lists of ships lost or captured on all sides show that resources were stretched. Topographical reports concentrate on French controlled ports, and literary and historical content in this issue was considerably reduced.
