Anything with the Ranger name on it is the best available. I used and carried the Ranger Handbook when I was in a mechanized infantry unit. It covered everything except armored vehicle. I was told by my 1SG that the Ranger Handbook was the Soldier's Bible when I was a PFC. He also told me to take correspondence courses which I did and maxed out military education on every promotion board up to E-6. I'd love to see a Ranger Medic handbook!

Definitely worth a read. I would also consider looking at either the paramedic route or expeditionary medic course as well. Either will make you very highly sought after skills wise.

Its a phenomenal resource tool. You can also find the flight medic protocols online. Personally I have an old iPad that has the medical ARs,TMs, etc on it.
