Hello piquant,

If you cloned your System Drive using Carbon Copy Cloner, then you would use this App to restore Address Book.

Unfortunately I have no experience with CCC, therefore I can't advise you on the steps to take.

If you attach your Ext Drive can you open the drive and navigate to your Address Book backup, or did you back up your HD as a .dmg file?

If you can launch Address Book on the Ext drive, then using the Address Book ~> File ~> Export Group Vcard, you could Export the Group Vcard to your iBooks desktop, then using Pacifist, extract Address Book.app from your Panther Installation Disc and when it's properly installed, import the Group Vcard, which would essentially have you up an running again.
