Why do you think the author wrote about the town shed acts before writing about the tea act

Because Townshend Acts happened before the tea party.

Explanation:

Townshend Acts were a series of measures that the British parliament created. These measures were intended to propose high taxes on imported goods for American colonies. American settlers saw this as abuse and completely disregarded these measures. However, they had no parliamentary representation, leaving them completely at the mercy of the British parliament.

This provoked the ire of the American colonists, causing them to start a series of protests against the Townshend Acts. Among these protests are the tea party.
