An is used before h where the h is silent, as in an hour and an honor ( and in America, an herb). It may also be used before h-words not accented on the first syllable, as in an historian. This is because English resists an intervocalic h sound - there is no h sound in vehicle, for example - and so the h of historian may become silent in a phrase.
