Almost forgot - the ideas like "forget tourniquets" will rightly get some criticism because Tilton's book is based on backcountry or wilderness first aid, when there is no ER handy within 10 minutes to help your patient. Its you and them and what is at hand for 24 hours. Even the WFA treatment protocols are becoming much more accepting of tourniquets in particular to treat massive bleeds (where pressure and elevation can't effectively stop bleeding). Tourniquets are good, as long as you have a quality one that's designed correctly - not paracord, or shoe laces etc.

I don't carry a tourniquet in the backcountry but have considered it; I also know though that the same 1 inch webbing I routinely carry can be improvised to help fashion a tourniquet should push come to shove.
