Thank you for this idea, I can pass it on to my colleagues for consideration. I am interested to see if this is a topic that other forum users are keen on – please let me and Bad Andy know.

Considering the fame the Zouaves gained at actions in the Crimea, Mexico, and countless other engagements (as well as being the inspiration for the myriad of American Zouave units in the Civil War) I would think the French Zouaves are deserving of a title. In fact, I'd very much like to see a volume covering the uniforms of the various French colonial troops of 19th century North Africa (Spahis, Tirailleurs, Chasseurs d'Afrique, etc.).
