History is a subject everyone knows but few understand. Chinese historiansin the past have often helped dull events become exciting stories by alteringthe facts. A well-trained, quickly executed technique became a magic. unblockablemaneuver, or a strong, high jump into the air became an act of levitation. This, to be sure, helped to perk up the listener's ears, but made it essential for anyoneinterested in the facts rather than the fantasy of a well-spun yarn to separatethat which happened from that which was imagined.Myths, legends and folktales are usually tied to some kind of factualevent, one way or another. Often, however, trying to realistically distinguishwhere the event begins and the myth leaves off is no easy task.The accurate account of Wing Chun from its historical origins to thepresent day is immersed in such problems which can only be straightenedout after having intelligently gathered, laid out and sifted throughall of the legends and facts available
