I need to get bookmarks from a hard drive that is not the primary drive. It is from a computer that stopped working.
I have a hard drive from a computer that stopped working. I want to get my bookmarks from the Mozilla program as I had not backed up my bookmarks for some time. How can I retrieve my bookmarks?

You could create a new profile, remove the content, and replace it with the entire profile from your old drive.
But you are only asking about bookmarks, though I expect you also meant to include your browsing history so you would want places.sqlite
