Sorry, unless you specifically backed up the places.sqlite file in your Profile folder, that data is gone and all but impossible to recover without using a data recovery program.

History that has been deleted is gone. If you didn't clear the cache then you can look on the about:cache page to see if there are still files in it from that visit.
