Zulus didn't win against the British, but the huge technological gap was impressive. It's a good analysis of tactics and psychological warfare too.

You're talking about this war right? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anglo-Zulu_War

Is there a book that goes deeper into the tactics and psychological warfare?

Yup. It was covered in a chapter of The 33 Strategies of War, Robert Greene, but not the entire details of that war. It might be what you're looking for if you want a broad guide.
