John Toland's Rising Sun has a very good and in-depth description of the Guadalcanal campaign from both sides, but more so from the Japanese side. Well worth a read for the entire Pacific Campaign as well.
Thanks. I own a couple of books on the battle, Guadalcanal: The Definitive Account of the Landmark Battle by Richard B. Frank, and Guadalcanal by Edwin P. Hoyt, but I last read them in full more than 15 years ago. I also have the Osprey Command Series Guadalcanal 1942. Your suggestion will add more information.
