Octagon Press Ltd, London, United Kingdom, 1988. First Edition. Hardcover (Original Cloth). Near Fine Condition/Very Good. The Natives are Restless is the second book in Idries Shah's best-selling trilogy on why the English are as strange as they are.

Shah observes how the English see themselves, and contrasts it with how the rest of the world views this eccentric island race.
