Ibiblio (online) is actually pretty decent. There is really not much in the "one stop shopping" book wise, sadly. For the battle of Guadalcanal, Richard Frank's book is pretty definitive, and the air battle is covered by Lundstrom's, First Team: Guadalcanal book.

Moving up the Slot requires unit histories from USN, USMC, RNZAF, and USAAF books, plus the japanese side.
