I suppose a simple Jamfile sample could do the job:

# Configuration of documentation build for 'mylib' as a part of Boost C++ tree.
# specify project id for mylib documentation
project boost/libs/mylib/doc ;
# import Quickbook
import boostbook : boostbook ;
using quickbook ;
# specify location for custom images
path-constant images_location : html ;
# define target
boostbook quickbook
    :
        mylib.qbk
    :
        <xsl:param>boost.root=../../../..
        <xsl:param>boost.libraries=../../../libraries.htm
        <xsl:param>html.stylesheet=../../../../doc/html/boostbook.css
        <xsl:param>chunk.section.depth=4
        <xsl:param>chunk.first.sections=1
        <xsl:param>toc.section.depth=3
        <xsl:param>toc.max.depth=3
        <xsl:param>generate.section.toc.level=4
        <format>pdf:<xsl:param>boost.url.prefix=http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/release/libs/mylib/doc/html
        <format>pdf:<xsl:param>img.src.path=$(images_location)/
    ;

Assuming it is boost/libs/mylib/doc/Jamfile, enter boost/libs/mylib/doc directory and issue bjam command and you should similar output:

$ bjam

I'm going to mark this as a duplicate of #5985. Even though that's later as it's a bit more broad.
