In Which We Discuss War and Peace, Part 13, Chapter 15

Chapter 15

This chapter consists, almost entirely, of Tolstoy pointing out that Dokhturov is almost never talked about as a great soldier, he's just recorded as leading the Russian army to almost every victory.  Basically, he's quietly and competently getting on with things.  The rest is logistics for the specific battle we seem to be building up to.
