For the Pacific War, I have a few recommendations:

Samuel Eliot Morison's 15 volume History of United States Naval Operations in World War II is the standard work. It appears that the whole thing can be had from a very, very large online bookseller for a bit more than $200 (used?), and individual volumes (new) for about $13. His book Two Ocean War is a summary of the magnum opus. Morison was present on the bridge of the flagship during some of the actions he describes.

A more recent work is Richard B. Frank's Guadalcanal. This book obviously doesn't cover the entire war. However, the campaign for Guadalcanal lasted for 9 months and included 2 of the war's 5 great carrier battles as well as most of the war's furious night-time naval actions.

Finally, the quirky Victory at Sea by James Dunnigan and Albert Nofi, while not truly a history of the Pacific war, analyzes a wealth of nuts and bolts issues like what made an aircraft carrier most effective and contrasts US production and logistics with the Japanese.
