Steven Gerrard has triumphed over the world's greatest ever
footballer in the 2007 Galaxy Book Awards.
The Liverpool skipper's autobiography pipped that of Brazilian
legend Pele to claim top prize in Sports Book of the Year
category.
'Gerrard: My Autobiography' has proved a best-seller since being
published in September last year and easily outsold those penned by
England team-mates Wayne Rooney, Frank Lampard and Ashley
Cole.
This honour is the latest among a multitude of personal accolades
that have come his way recently, including the MBE which he
received from the Queen at Buckingham Palace a fortnight
ago.
