Eureka - The Answer to My Wish, Pt. 1

Several Years ago I was reading the Sefer Sh'mirat Halashon by the Choffetz Chaim. Aside from the content, I was enamored with its structure, namely a systematic anthology of Aggaidic Material based upon a theme
I then wished - can we have more of the same, that is structured Aggadic compilations, but on other subjects?

Several suggested - How about The Choffetz Chaim's own Sefer Ahavat Chessed?
Recently I discovered that a comprehensive collection that has actually existed for 5+ Centuries, namely R Yitzchak Abohab's Sefer M'norat Hama'or

More Details to follow in part 2.

Shalom,
