'An' makes sense when the 'n' is a consonant to divide two vowel sounds. If you pronounce the 'h' it makes the 'n' in 'an' redundant, and makes the sentence awkward to pronounce.
If, however, you don't pronounce the 'h', it makes sense to use 'an'. But who says 'istory'? Unless you're pretending to be French speaking English.
Bonjour! Ça va? J'adore an 'istory lesson or deux! It izzz ze most intorestong thang in ma 'umble opinion!
Do you say 'a' or 'an' historic?
