LONDON — A discovery in a Liverpool library has revealed that Paul McCartney’s talent for writing was winning him prizes when he was just 10 — though for an essay about the queen rather than a hit song.
A British researcher said he found an essay written — in very tidy, curling script — by the future Beatle for the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II.
McCartney won the under-11 age category of the essay competition and was given a prize — a gift certificate for books — by Liverpool’s Lord Mayor. The Associated Press
