I read this one: https://global.oup.com/academic/product/the-histories-978019...

There is a newer translation by Tom Holland which I own but have not read yet: https://www.amazon.ca/Histories-Penguin-Classics-Deluxe/dp/0...

I wholeheartedly recommend the Landmark Herodotus: https://www.amazon.ca/Landmark-Herodotus-Histories-Robert-St...

The indices, maps, and other additional information was a great aid in understanding the text.
