Leiningen versus the Ants is a 1938 short story by German author Carl Stephenson. - AsNotedIn
"Unless they alter their course and there's no reason why they should, they'll reach your plantation in two days at the latest."Leiningen sucked placidly at a cigar about the size of a corncob and for a few seconds gazed without answering at the agitated District Commissioner. Then he took the cigar from his lips, and leaned slightly forward. With his bristling grey hair, bulky nose, and lucid eyes, he had the look of an aging and shabby eagle.
