In a grand history of naval warfare, Palmer observes five centuries of dramatic encounters under sail and steam, demonstrating that while abilities to communicate improved, other technologies simultaneously shrank admirals' windows of decision. As a result, naval commanders have never had sufficient means or time to direct subordinates in battle.
