SoapStone Two Ways to Belong in America S:The speaker is Bruce Catton who was a prominent authority on the civil war. O:The occasion of the essay is the meeting of general Lee and grant to work out the surrender of Lee's army. A: The audience of the essay is Americans. The essay is about Lee and Grant discussing the terms of Lee's surrender and it is also about the characteristics of each man.
