 Law.com - The A-List
That's interesting, but we don't think it yields a genuine list of "top firms." Our mates at the Chambers directory distill their interviews into a roster of "firms with the most big hitters nationwide." Unless you're recruiting for a softball league, that leaves us unsatisfied as well.
This information should be important to recruits trying to decide where to spend their careers, to laterals looking for a new office to call home, and to the firms themselves.
The list of those who failed to respond in one category or another is filled with famous firms: Kirkland & Ellis; Morrison & Foerster; Hughes Hubbard & Reed; Milbank, Tweed, Hadley & McCloy; Munger Tolles & Olson; Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld; Kaye Scholer; and Irell & Manella.

 Alabama Governor Thomas Hill Watts
Thomas Hill Watts was born in the Alabama Territory on January 3, 1819, the oldest of twelve children born to John Hughes Watts and Prudence Hill who had moved from Georgia to find the better lands of the frontier.
Politically, Watts adopted a pro-Union stance during the 1850s, but subsequent developments made the depth of his beliefs questionable, for on the eve of the Civil War he played an important role in the secession of Alabama, and was one of the signers of the secession ordinance.
During the winter of 1864-65, Governor Watts had to deal with the increasing number of sacrifices demanded of his state, the breakdown of authority, the drain on war power, and an evaporating hope of victory, all of which contributed to the state's war weariness.
