Capitalize first letter of each word in a selection using Vim


In Vim, I know we can use ~ to capitalize a single char (as mentioned in this question), but is there a way to capitalize the first letter of each word in a selection using Vim?

For example, if I would like to change this

hello world from stack overflow

to

Hello World From Stack Overflow

how should I do it in Vim?

    s/\<./\u&/g
