QUAN. (Hangzhou,1933).
The first of them contains description of base training methods and combat techniques DA HONG QUAN and XIAO HONG

During
several centuries Shaolin monks used to start learning those
traditional styles to acquire the Pugilistic Art. The second book
deals with combat use of techniques CHIN NA which include a wide
set of various methods: press and blows on vulnerable points,
grappling, strangling, throws and so on. Both books are written as
textbooks and supplied with great number of photographs and
