You have 2 possible solutions

Solution 1 (recommended)

---

Use the tool h2root provided in $ROOTSYS/bin to convert a hbook file to root file

   h2root myfile.hbook
will generate myfile.root

Solution 2

---

Access the hbook file via the class THbookFile  Suppose a hbook file with some histograms, you can do, eg

  root > THbookFile f("myfile.hbook")
  root > f.ls(); //to see the content
  root > TH1 * h102 = (TH1*)f.Get(102); //import hbook id=102 in memory
  root > h102->Draw()
