Gail Damerow (Luttmann) is a good example of a good writer being able to convince people she knows chickens. When she was Gail Luttman (Chickens in your Backyard) she actually had some chickens, but she didn't do any of the things you read about in her books. She was a neighbor and I worked at a university with her hubby of the time. I cared for her birds when they were away, so I am very aware of her chicken raising skills. . She has a writing style that appeals to a lot of people, but most the info is stuff that has been around for.......a century.

And what wasn't information she found & repackaged she made up.
ETA: Common sense seems to be more uncommon all the time.
