Daryl Tonkin was born in Essendon in 1918. From the age of thirteen, Daryl and his older brother Harry worked as stockmen and horse breakers, before settling in the great forests of West Gippsland where they established a timber business. Except for a short stint in Toora, Daryl lived and worked at the original property at Jackson's Track until his death in 2008. Carolyn Landon is an oral historian, and has a Masters degree in biography and life writing from Monash University. She is co-author of Cups with No Handles (2008) with Bette, Gina and Les Boyanton, and co-author with Eileen Harrison of the memoir Black Swan (2011). Her book Jackson's Track Revisited (2006) tells the story behind the original memoir.
